Today's happy was definitely our homemade pizza!
It's one of the quickest, easiest, yet most delicious meals and we make it almost weekly.
A few years ago I started making the crusts from whatever Healthy Bread in 5 Minutes a Day dough I have on hand.
Often I mix up a double batch of dough and make crusts to freeze. Each recipe makes 3 or 4 crusts and freeze beautifully. Just roll them out and prebake for 8-9 minutes, cool, and freeze.
We use frozen pesto or a red sauce made from oven dried tomatoes - both homemade with summer bounty. A little sauce, some cheese, and other desired toppings and dinner is ready in a flash, with very little cleanup to boot.
Last night I was pooped, so Michael made us two fabulous pizzas using ingredients that were on hand and only needed a quick zap in the microwave. The pizza pictured above had pesto, parmesan, fresh mozarella and feta.
Our second pizza had sauteed mushrooms and a sprinkling of sausage along with parmesan and fresh mozarella. Served with fresh veggies - we had colorful peppers and sugar snap peas - this was a great meal.
And it certainly made me happy.
