Homemade Pizza

Yum! This was really good and is such a versatile dish made up of things we almost always have on hand. I think we will be making more homemade pizzas in the future. Next time, I am going to play with some spices and/or cheeses in the crust to give it a little something more. The recipe I used for the crust can be found here.

Ingredients:

For the crust:
1 1/3c flour
1tsp baking powder
1/2tsp salt
1/2c milk
2tbs olive oil

For the sauce:
6oz tomato paste
8oz tomato sauce (more or less depending on how much sauce you like)
1-2 cloves of garlic, minced
Italian seasoning to taste

1 1/2c shredded cheese of your choice (we used and Italian blend)
Toppings (We used sausage crumbles on my husband's side and a bell pepper, onion, and tomato on my side)

Directions:
Heat oven to 400.

In medium bowl combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in milk and olive oil until a soft dough forms. On lightly floured surface, knead dough ten time. Shape into a ball and cover with bowl for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine sauce ingredients. Set aside.

Place dough on an ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten slightly and roll out to a 12in circle. Bake 8 minutes.

Spread sauce over crust, top with your choice of topping and cheese. Bake and additional 15 to 20 minutes until crust is light golden brown and cheese begins to brown.
