Homemade Pizza




For Christmas one year I asked for a pizza stone.  I got a pizza stone, pizza peel, and pizza cutter!  We finally broke out the pizza tools and made a homemade pizza and it was so good!  I bought two dough balls at Food Lion.  They had herb and plain for only $2.50.  I actually got 2 pizzas out of each ball of dough.  

Use a paper towel and rub olive oil onto your pizza stone and place on the center rack of the oven.
Heat your oven to 475 degrees with the pizza stone in the oven.
Let the dough sit out at room temperature for 10-15 minutes.  You can prepare your toppings at this time, like cutting up the veggies.
I covered my counter in parchment paper then sprinkled it with flour.
Then I put the dough ball on the parchment and sprinkled it with a bit of flour.
I also floured the rolling pin.
The dough is so sticky!
I rolled my dough out into a round shape, but it did snap back on one side.
Put the dough on a floured pizza peel and shimmy it onto the pizza stone in the oven.
Let it crisp in the oven for 10 minutes.
Shimmy it back onto the pizza peel and top it while it sits on the peel.
We did pizza sauce, provolone slices, shredded mozzarella, pepperoni, green pepper, and onion.
Use a brush to put some olive oil around the edge of the crust.  
Place pizza back on the pizza stone and bake until golden.  
Use the peel to remove the pizza from the stone.  Do not try to remove the pizza stone.  I burned myself once doing that.  
Add any fresh toppings after baking.  Arugula, basil, etc.

Sprinkle taco seasoning over chicken. Pour salsa and soup over chicken. Add black beans and corn I stir it all together Cook on high for about 3.5 hours and cut chicken to check for doneness.

It was like a Mexican chicken chili :) I will be making th...
