Pizza Night!

When I say pizza night, I mean a lot of pizza! We all like our favorite types of dough and since we are home...we have what we like!


I always start with the illustrator's dough so there is no cross contamination. He really likes Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Crust made with flax eggs. He almost always wants peppers and onions so that is what he got tonight!


Then I make the boys' dough, which is my go to recipe. Max likes thin crust with tomatoes.


Jay likes thick crust with ham.


I like my good ol' flax oatmeal chickpea crust loaded with peppers, onions and fresh tomatoes (and a little kosher salt and fresh ground pepper).


Gosh it has been too long since the last pizza night!


For ease of preparation on the peppers and onions (and to cut the cost), I use the frozen mix. The key to not having soggy pizza with all those peppers and onions is to defrost them in the microwave and let them drain (squeeze out a little of the water too).

Why has it been so long since the last pizza night?

  15. Bethan, I do Daiya sometimes and hummus works well too, but for me the pizza is not about the cheese, but more about the toppings and a good crust.

  20. We have pizza night about once per week. I love Bob's pizza mix -- it turned out so thick and crusty for us (just how I like it!). Last week I made a spelt crust and that was fantastic too.
