Friday Night Pizzas

Though my preferred pizza crust is Mark Bittman's Mostly No Work Pizza Dough, when I don't plan ahead - like tonight - this will recipe suffice.

I didn't feel like doing anything tonight. Close friends balked and demanded, "Define 'do nothing'! Because nothing means you call for pizza delivery." Okay, I didn't feel like doing too much; I wanted to make pizza and watch Star Wars with my three loves. Easy enough. I doubled this and made three medium-ish pizzas.

1 T active dry yeast
1 T organic granulated sugar
1 C warm water
2-1/2 C white whole wheat flour
2 T olive oil
1 t pink Himalaya salt

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. In a medium bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes. Stir in flour, salt and oil. Beat until smooth. Let rest for 15 minutes.

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat or roll to fit your baking stone, round or rectangular.

Pizza One - Riley's Pick: minced garlic, tomato sauce, shredded cheeses, ham, and fresh pineapple chunks

Pizza Two - Dylan's Choice: Pesto, shredded cheeses

Pizza Three - For Jake: tomato sauce; shredded cheeses; ham; ground beef sauteed with Spring onions, fennel seeds, paprika, ground cumin; olives, and a sprinkling of salt and pepper.

Bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown.

You're Invited: Take a (Virtual) Hawaiian Holiday with #FoodNFlix

Fall Break, Oahu, October 2017 For June, I am hosting Food'N'Flix , the movie-watching, food-making group rallied by Heather of All Roads Lead to the Kitchen . This week, my older son was supposed to graduate from high school and we were supposed to leave on a family vacation to the Big Island. But, as enter our eleventh week of being sheltered in place to flatten the curve of the coronavirus, all of our summer plans were canceled, including this long-planned graduation trip to Hawaii. Boo. I understand the need to self-isolate. And we are abiding by the social distancing guidelines put in place by our state. But, boo, nonetheless. Oahu, October 2017 So for this month's Food'N'Flix, I chose to open up the field and let all of the food bloggers take a (virtual) Hawaiian holiday. My boys have been to Oahu several times with my parents in recent years as my dad grew up there and wanted to spend some time on the island with his grandsons. Ke...
