Make Your Own Pizza

This week I made something I have never made before and loved it - homemade pizza. Was it ever yummy and had me wondering, “Why haven’t I done this before?”

Here is a list of what is needed to make the pizza I made:

1 box Jiffy pizza crust mix (or any mix will do. Jiffy’s mix was only 40 cents)
1 cup shredded mozzarella
1 cup pizza sauce (more or less depending on whether you like pizza sauce)
About 20 slices of pepperoni
1/2 cup sausage

Prepare the pizza dough as per the directions on the box. Once you have your dough prepared and laid out onto your baking sheet, use a ladle to place the pizza sauce on the pizza and spread it around. Next add your toppings and then cheese. Or if you prefer your pepperoni crisp, add it after the cheese. Then bake per directions on the pizza crust box. Here is how mine turned out:

While buying all the ingredients didn’t save me money when compared to a frozen pizza, I do have enough to make a second pizza, making it cheaper than both frozen pizzas and take out. All I need is another 40 cent box of pizza crust. So not only was it a delicious meal and have fun in the kitchen, it’s a way to save money, too.
