EASY pizza at home

Yeah we could go out and get it but here is a great EASY way to add fun to dinner with your kids. We always let Hunter make his own and he loves it.

Go to your favorite local pizza joint and buy their dough! Yup, they will and you will love the results at home. 2 large and a small is 8 bucks, can't beat it

Bring home the dough and have the essentials - 
Mozzarella
Sauce (gravy where I come from)


Extras
peperoni
garlic
onions
Grated cheese
Olives (Hunters favorite)
and anything else you like (dried oregano, basil, thyme for authentic)

heat your oven to 425 or so
roll out the dough or hand form it, either way is fine
TIP - corn meal is great, flour is good to keep it from not sticking while forming the dough.
Place the stuff on your pizza and put it in the oven -
cook till your liking (crispy bottom or not) -
take it out of the oven and let it cool before cutting (5 mins or less)

salad
wine
milk for the young ones and there you have it (or Bob's your uncle)
Home made pizza

after two times of doing this you will have your precess down pat
we recommend making about three times too much so there is plenty of leftover pizza!

If you want to get fancy go to your local restaurant supply house and buy a peel (what the pizza joints use to take the pizza out of the oven), pizza trays of varying sizes and a pizza stone. The stone does add to the flavor and the other items just make it easier to play with.
