Pizza From the Pantry

Well I hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable 4th of July weekend.  Ours was more sedate than some in the past have been. No big get togethers or beer and fireworks this year. And I didn't miss it at all!  We smoked some turkey on the pit, had some good baked beans, swiss chard and home made bread and enjoyed good company.  What more can a person ask for?


We made pizza from scratch this weekend as well.  This was my first adventure in start to finish pizza from food storage.  Mushroom made the dough and let it rise.  And then divided it into pizza pan size dough.

And then we spread it out on the pizza pan.... Looking good!!

Sprinkled a little garlic powder onto the crust...Then we added pizza sauce.  We used a jarred spaghetti sauce for this. Just a little bit and spread it out to the edges.

Then we added fresh onions, some fresh ham,  and re-hydrated ground beef and mushrooms.

Topped it off with copious amounts of shredded mozzarella cheese. And popped it in the oven.

12 minutes or so later....

Amazing!!!  We had some left over dough which was cooked to go with the wonderful feast we enjoyed for the 4th on the next day.

So what did you do this holiday weekend?
