INTRODUCTION
I don’t have any bread in the house today for lunch. I know, I know. Bad planning and a sign of how close to complete domestic chaos I probably am. But I had a plan. I made pizza.
Genius. I got the kids involved and they were too busy grating cheese and spreading tomato mix that they didn’t notice their tummies grumbling until they could smell the cheese bubbling and it was time to sink their teeth into the deliciousness that is homemade pizza. Disaster averted and hero status claimed!
From making the dough and eating the pizza, it’s about 30 minutes. Seems unbelievable, but it’s true. I don’t let my dough prove at all, just make it and roll it out and bake it after I’ve topped it with whatever toppings I have in the fridge. I crank up my oven to the highest it can go and while it’s coming up to temperature I make the dough and get the kids to get the toppings ready.
Family fun at it’s best.
