Expeirment Food


I love Pizza we grew up eating pizza at least once a week. Never homemade always store bought or ordered out. Now that I have my own family I like to try new things and homemade pizza is one of them. So I have a basic recipe for the dough that is my sister-in-laws that I love. Then I just play around with the toppings. Some of my favorite pizza's I have made is this one Alfredo, chicken, tomato and BBQ chicken, bacon pizza.

Pizza Crust
1/2 Tablespoon Yeast
1 Cup warm water
1 T. Sugar
Combine set for about 5 mins until foamy

In mixer add:
2 to 3 Tablespoons oil
1 tsp. salt
2 to 2 1/2 cups of flour
Add yeast
Mix all together when dough comes away from sides of mixer it is done.
Roll out on floured surface then spray cookie sheet and put dough on. For thin crust I just use one batch of dough if you want thick double it.
Then add toppings:
Cook 1/2 to 1 lb of ground up chicken
Make one package of Alfredo sauce or buy 1 bottle. Put 1/2 of the sauce on crust the other half add to chicken once cooked.
Put chicken on crust then add cheese your favorite kind. For this one I used cheddar and monetary jack.
Then dice up 1 tomato and add on top.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees and cook for 20 to 30 mins.
Once I made this and ate it I thought artichoke hearts would have been really good on it. So I will let you know how that goes next time we have it.
