Receta Homemade Pizzas
Homemade Pizzas
By Raven Chelanee, on July 24th, 2011, Pizza
I think that I could live off of pizza, warm out of the oven or next day out of the fridge. Growing up, pizza was a weekend staple with a rented movie from Blockbuster. Good times, good times. Now, I am making Homemade Pizzas and ordering a movie right off of the TV. How times change!
I love making homemade personal pizzas. You can mix and match really anything you want and customize if for any diet. If you are a vegan, vegetarian, or super carnivore these pizzas are perfect and half the price tag. I loaded mine up with fresh tomatoes, basil, artichoke hearts, bell pepper, onions, and olives! Seriously Delicious. My DH loves anchovies and really went to town on his pizza.
Delicious Rating: Don’t overwork the dough on this one or you may end up with a tough cookie. I love this dough! It was so workable and smooth. Add some Italian seasoning to the dough for more flavor in the pizza if you’d like. Almost all the ingredients for the dough are in your pantry; so if you have a lot of veggies to use up this is your go-to recipe. Any combination will be delicious so it really doesn’t matter what you put on top, just add what you like. This is a perfect easy recipe for a night at home, when you have friends over, or for children.

This dough is so good and perfect. It is also vegan which is great! You can make ahead and freeze right before one of the rising times if you want for future pizza making dates.
You can keep all 4 balls together to make one large pizza or 2 balls for two mediums. But I like the personal size to mix and match my ingredients on each one.
I bought some pizza sauce in a jar and it was pretty normal but I know I could cook up one and it would be even better than the jarred stuff. Next time.
Delicious!
