Dinners from the Deli: Homemade Pizza

pizza1

One of the best kept secrets at the grocery store is that they often will sell you pizza dough from the deli section/bakery. Harris Teeter now sells their regular dough and they also offer it in whole wheat. I’ve used the dough on a  number of occasions for small parties – break the dough up in thirds and give everyone a pie pan to make their own pizza. Everyone leaves a happy camper – not only do they get their hands dirty but they also make their meal exactly the way they want it (perfect for kids and vegetarians).

You, of course, can make a large pizza too. No doubt it will taste a whole lot better than delivery. I use tomato slices as a base and skip the sauce. Add sauted mushrooms, sausage or pepperoni or any veggie of interest. No recipe here – do it your self and bake off at 400 degrees.

  1. Trader Joe’s (if you are lucky enough to live near one!) also sells both white and wheat pizza dough in the refrigerated / ready-to-eat area. it’s very good and freezes well. Our only downfall/complaint with it is that it requires resting time (which requires us to be patient)!
