Make Your Own Pizza

I make pizza about two to three times a month. I amke my own pizza dough by mixing self rising flour with herbs and parmesan cheese, 1 egg and enough oil and milk to make a dough to form into a ball adding flour as needed. Kneed it for about five minutes and then work it to fit a pizza baking stone. I let the dough raise while I get the toppings ready. I use canned pizza sauce, shredded colby Jack cheese, black olives, sliced mushrooms and cooked and drained ground beef seasoned with Italian seasonings, garlic powder and salt & pepper. Bake at 450* for about 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and then let it set for a minute or two before cutting. I've made the same pizza using diced turkey ham and chunk pineapple also.

You are brilliant! I have to hand it to you - you are such a good cook. When I make pizza I just use anything at hand and top it with cheese. Nothing special at all. I do lile the beggie pizza's though and now you have given me some ideas to cook it differently with different toppings. Many thanks for this. Blessings

Rather than pizza I make Calzones for everyone..and they are huge LOL...but like you said its far too expensive to order out and I fully agree that the frozens ones just dont cut it..AND making Calzones, everyone can fill them as they like over trying to order pizza to suit all the ppl in the house which in this family is next to impossible LOL...

I make my own pizza once every few months. I made pizza for my son's birthday this past Saturday. They were cheese, pepperoni, and bacon pizzas. My son loves bacon on his pizza.

Gosh, the last time I made a homemade pizza was when my eldest was about 5 or 6, (he is 17 now). I remember the base was what I had learned at school and was just a flour mix of some kind like a scone base I think. I let him do it and he put tomato and cheese and pepperoni on I think I know it was the best pizza I had tasted! I really must do some again but I have become a lazy cook over the years lol!!

I really can't remember the last time I made my own pizza. It was probably more than a year ago. I eat a lot of frozen pizza though. I think when I made the pizza it was either cheese or vegetable. Those are my favorites.

I love making pizza I make pizza with my children all the time they love helping me make it and adding all the toppings. There favorite is cheese then we add pepperoni on they are the best cause now a days I can't afford Papa John, Pizza Inn, Pizza Hut, nor Domino's so I stick to homemade and we all love it........Great Day!!

We like to make home made pizza too. We use a cookie sheet, there are only three of us, so we split the pizza into thirds and add our toppings. My daughter usually likes just cheese and maybe pepperoni. I like the works but no mushrooms and my boyfriend likes everything and mushrooms. We make them so big and thick that you have to eat to with a fork! yum! Guess what we may have for dinner?

When we have pizza, we always make our own. I make the curst in my bread machine. Add sauce and then add cheeses, hot and sweet peppers, onions, pepperoni, ground beef, sausage, and anything else I have in the fridge. We don't like commercially prepared pizza much. I also make a great veggie pizza. It is made with cresent rolls as the cust. Yummy

We don't make our own pizza very often. I make Stromboli a good bit though. Do you buy the pizza dough at the store that is in the tube like crescent rolls? That is what I use for stromboli. I just unroll it and put a line of meat and cheese and mushrooms and stuff down the middle. Then I fold the sides up over and bake it. The only pizza we've made ourselves was a veggie pizza. I have a recipe from pampered chef we use. the sauce is made up from mayo and hidden valley ranch dressing mix. Then you just top it with chopped carrots, broccoli and cauliflower. It is really good. I wouldn't mind making our own pizzas more often. The frozen ones aren't too bad though. Our favorite is Frechetta's. They have one that is spinach and portabello mushrooms that is really good.

wow, i haven't made my own pizza in a while. but what i usually put on it depends on if my daughter is home or not. she doens't like much on her pizza. usually just cheese and olives on her side and peperoni, olives and hot banana peppers on my side.

I generally make my own pizza, I either buy the dough from a bakery or make my own. Either making a classical pizza or a calzone (I get a normal pizza and fold it, I know it's not exactly a calzone but it keeps better if I made too much). I am farely dull when it comes to toppings though, generally mushrooms, salami or ham or spicey sausage and olives. Before putting on the cheese I generally put on a mix of finely chopped garlic, mixed spice or oregano and a little olive oil which I really love the taste of. I have made pizza out of various toppings tuna, shredded chicken, mince etc but always tend to make the same mix, dull I know I won't say I have it very often but maybe once or twice a month, then I may go a month or two without having any then have it twice in one week. It depends on what everyone is in the mood for. I have to try your breakfast pizza, never had one with egg.

We rarely eat pizza, but when we do it is normally one I've made myself. I make the dough in the breadmaker, then add my own toppings. I prefer veggie pizza so they always have a good selection of veg on them; onions, pepper, sweetcorn, tomato slices, and maybe a bit of whatever else I have in the fridge. If we have any ham or sausage I'll put some on to satisfy the men of the household, together with tomato puree and a good helping of cheese. On the rare occassions that we buy a ready made pizza, I always stick loads of extra toppings on top plus extra cheese. The frozen ones you can buy are so bare, and the deli counter ones are expensive.

I always make my own pizzas as they are cheaper and healthier, I love putting loads of stuff on them, tuna, peppers, sweetcorn anything really.

I love pizza. I tend to either make my own or buy a cardboard pizza and add to it. I like pepperoni, onions, ham, mushrooms, greenpeppers, salami and lots no lots of cheese on mine. I'm not to big on the breakfast or desert pizzas.
