Homemade Pizza

Oh my goodness.........I will never buy a frozen pizza again.  A few weeks ago James Clark asked if we could make homemade pizzas, dough and all.

So when I went to the grocery store I picked up all of the items we would need to make a homemade pizza.

Today was the day to make homemade PIZZA!  It was so quick and easy and very delicious.  We mixed the Jiffy brand dough with water and let it sit for 5 minutes, while our sausage was cooking for 12 minutes.  I opened a can of black olives (one of James Clark's favorites), pepperoni and some Mama Mary's pizza sauce that I found.  The pizza sauce was a package with 3 five ounce packages inside so there would not be left over pizza sauce to put in the fridge to get yucky.

James Clark had a ball with the dough......sticky fingers and flour flying.  He wanted to twirl it like a real pizza maker, but we opted out of that since I did not buy a back up box of dough (in case it hit the floor).

All and all it only took about 20 minutes to prep everything and 18 minutes to cook the pizza and when you figure that one of those frozen pizzas take 25 minutes to cook I would much rather have fun making this homemade pizza with my son and spend the extra 13 minutes and have a much taster pizza.    I did I mention it was so much FUN to make with my 3 year old.
