Make Your Own Pizza Night

I'm always trying to cook more for our family, but my plans always seem to get derailed. This week, however, planets were aligned and the cosmos seemed at peace: I actually made dinner more than twice this week! Woohoo!

The Crack Monkeys are big pizza eaters; they'd eat pizza every night if they could. But, since that's not advisable for our bank account, I thought we'd try some homemade pizza.

Pinterest was my go-to for a homemade pizza dough, and I think my brain just about broke from all of the different recipes there were. I had to sift through all of the "best homemade pizza dough" and "easiest homemade pizza dough" recipes until it became a bit overwhelming, so I settled for the one with the one that had the most pictures to go along with the instructions. (Here's the recipe I used: The Best Homemade Pizza Dough)

The dough was easy enough, and the kids were really excited at the idea of putting what and how much they wanted on their pizzas. I don't have any pictures of them making their pizzas (my hands were covered in pizza sauce and cheese), but here are some of the end results:



Don't they look absolutely thrilled with their creations? ;-)

I think I can file this one away as a success!
