Homemade pizza Monday

,

Even though I'm not really feelin' it tonight, I'm making dinner. And on top of that, I'm going outside my comfort zone of making a frozen pizza and instead.....I'm making a pizza from scratch.

I shall take photos and wow you with my culinary skillz!!! OOooooOO!

So it wasn't too hard making the crust but then Mr Hubster and I kinda started drawing blanks as to what to put on our pizza. I decided to brown some chicken, chop some spinach, add some bacon and sun dried tomatoes. Mr Hubster mixed all the ingredients and made the crust while I chopped. :)

This is the recipe I followed for the homemade crust:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 2/3 cup milk
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a rimmed pizza pan or baking sheet.
  2. In a large bowl, stir together flour, salt, oregano and black pepper. Mix in eggs and milk; stir well. Pour batter into prepared pan and tilt until evenly coated. Arrange toppings of choice on top of batter.
  3. Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until crust is set.
  4. Remove crust from oven. Drizzle on pizza sauce and sprinkle on cheese. Bake until cheese is melted, about 10 minutes.
So, here's the play by play in my kitchen: This is my chicken in my pan. It browned up really well and I added it in at the last step with the cheese since it was already cooked before it got added to the pizza feast.
Here's my chopped up stuff (tomatoes and spinach) and here's the crust Mr Hubster made: (!!!)


A little mixie-do and we have our pizza all ready for the oven!!



The finished product!! It was yummy but the crust was a little bland. Next time, we'll try adding some stuff to spice it up some, but for a first attempt, I'm pretty proud of myself. :) It didn't turn out horrible and it didn't take too long for it to come together.

Now, I'm going to go take a bath. I'm not really excited about it since it is already nearly 10 pm, but I have to be clean before morning because I have to jet outta here first thing to an appointment with my dermatologist.

Oh, side note, did I mention that I wrecked my car this weekend? Yes I did!! I'm a big time major screw up because of what I wrecked my car ON. Go ahead. Ask. You know you want to know, you're just dying from curiosity. Ok. I'll tell you.

I backed up into my garage door. ::sigh:: The last panel gets hung up sometimes and doesn't go up all the way and when I looked in my rear-view, I couldn't see it anymore and the garage had stopped so...I figured it was up. Ahem...wrong. $659 worth of damage done to my new car. I nearly ripped my rear spoiler and brake light OFF the car, or I should say that the garage door nearly did. The garage door has been repaired and the parts have been ordered for the car.

I am now accepting charity to pay for my hideous mistakes. :P Have a good one ya'll.
