QUICK PIZZA DOUGH
1 c. lukewarm water
2 tbsp. vegetable oil
1 tbsp. honey
2 1/2 c. flour
Mix yeast in water , then add other ingredients. Mix well by hand. Cover with dishtowel and let sit in bowl for 5-10 minutes. Flatten on greased pan. Add your own toppings. Bake at 450 degrees for about 12 minutes.
Topping Ideas:
Barbecue Chicken
2 cups cooked chicken, cubed
1 small onion, finely diced
barbecue sauce....just eyeball it
Veggie
Green peppers, onions, mushrooms, olives
Hawaiian
Ham and pineapples
Just go for it....I sometimes double the recipe and make 4 individual pizzas so that everyone can add their own toppings. It's a great way to get the kids involved in the kitchen too.
And here is mine tonight, I doubled the recipe and made a HUGE pizza...and let me tell you, the dough is like a deep dish, but it's so fluffy....totally yummy!!!
I used a can of Italian Tomatoes (basil, oregano, garlic) for the base, instead of the usual pizza sauce. Then I put mushrooms, ham, chourizo, green peppers and cheese. Go ahead and use whatever you have available at home, it's the best way to make it your own!!!
Enjoy!!!
Sandra, Barb kept emailing me telling me she was making "Sandra's french dips" and I finally asked, "Sandra who?" - YOU! I've never looked over here at your recipe blog. What a find. And of course I'm going down to the freezer right this minute to grab a roast - that's what we're having tonight too so I can paint and have the house smelling good when he walks in the door. Thanks a bunch!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds so yummy! My kids love pizza, I'll have to try this one. Especially the bbq chicken one.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your yummy recipes.
I'm coming back to tell you thanks.I thawed the roast, followed your recipe. Finished my painting while it cooked. Husband came home, house smelled great. He told me it was "quite tasty". I told him - I'll tell Sandra thank you. xoxoox
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, that pizza...looks and sounds scrumptious. Hope you still do the Sheppards pie, I have always wanted to know how to make that. :)
ReplyDeleteBev - I'm so glad you found the blog :) I try to post everyday, usually just what we're having that night for dinner, I do include a lot of portuguese recipes because it's what I cook most of :) I'm SO glad you enjoyed the roast, it's such a quick way to make it and it's really tasty :) Hope you come back soon :)
ReplyDeleteamclaws - I'm so glad you are enjoying the recipes :) Let me know how the pizza turns out.
Pamela - You should try the pizza, it's really good :) I'm going to post the Sheppards Pie recipe today, so be on the lookout for that :)
I made your pizza dough tonight. It was just as big and glorious as in your pictures. Thanks for the recipe. I've made a whole wheat recipe for years that takes forever to rise and make; this was much quicker.
ReplyDeleteI am going to try this on Friday. I think mixing by hand will be good exercise for my writst, which is still pretty stiff. The sauce is a great idea too, just to use the italian tomatoes. How easy that will be. Thanks
