Pizza !

Today's post is a diy post: We've been making our own pizzas!  Quite yummy.  We bought the crust; I'm not quite as adventurous as my Mom who can make the crust too, but the results are still tasty and probably healthier than store-bought.

Big J and I have different tastes and dietary restrictions so we made half pizzas. 



Big J's : This pizza has a traditional Spanish topping - yes Tuna!  weird right?

  • Tuna
  • Roast Peppers
  • Pico de Gallo

Mine :  Mine is just a mass of olives which I like a lot.

  • Black Olives
  • Roast Peppers
  • Pico de Gallo
  • Feta Cheese

The pizza was slightly under-crisp, so for our second pizza, we looked high and low for a pizza stone, but found nothing.  We got a pizza pan with holes instead.   The second pizza turned out much better.  Not sure if it was the pan or that we are now better at timing the baking time.

My Pizza :  Almost the same as the first one, but substituted spinach for the pico de gallo.
  • Black Olives
  • Roast Peppers
  • Spinach
  • Feta Cheese
Big J's :  Again, almost the same: 
  • Chicken Breast
  • Roast Peppers

Making pizzas is quite fun to do and quick too.  I'm already thinking up more toppings and this might become a regular ritual.  The kids unfortunately prefer the pizza parlour
