Homemade pizza
In a burst of insanity (I have to assume it was insanity...) I decided to make a pizza tonight for dinner.
Recently I've been thinking about what I want to do - feeling the tug of irritation and guilt regarding the way in which I consume.
We signed up for our first CSA and got some beautiful fresh fruits and vegetables. I had a craving for pizza, and instead of going to the local pizza joint, I decided to go ahead and wing it and make my own.
I COMPLETELY faked my pizza dough. I have a recipe and everything, and we've actually made pizza before, but I decided to be a lazy, lazy person and just throw everything together without much kneading or forethought.
This was ready in about 5-10 minutes.
Please excuse the not-good-ness of this picture. Like I said, I'm feeling pretty lazy. I'm also feeling impatient, because I went ahead and put it in the oven before my mom came back from the store with shredded mozzarella I was planning on plopping on top of it...
This is how it looked when I took it out when my mom got back with the mozzarella.
(I know what you're thinking: she couldn't be bothered to rotate the image??? geez... Yes. I know, I know. I feel the same way)
So. Here goes.
This is the finished product:
And my thoughts on my finished product? yum.

Looks delightful! Winging it is always fun...I typically feel more like I accomplished something when I make it up than when I meticulously follow a recipe, too :)
ReplyDeleteHiya Kim! I'm back in blogland. How are you?
ReplyDeleteI think most of my cooking is completely fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pants. Once you get a feel for things you can just kind of run with it, can't you?
hugs
Welcome back! :)
ReplyDeleteI miss you! We should get together!
And I agree...experimentation is the name of the game!
