Gotta love the weather today.
I should be drawn and quartered for not grilling today !!!!!
Whatcha got on the menu for tonight ???
Had the day off.....slept late and made a pie for my wife & I.
I am loving homemade pizza. I wish I could trade in all $$$ I've spent at Dominos, Pappa Johns, Marco's (the best of the chains) and etc and just make my own.
So much cheaper and really easy. Just takes some King Arthur flour, yeast, sauce, cheese and toppings.....most of which I have around anyway. Start to finish is under 30 mins, too.
Probably costs $4-$6 dollars to do it at home.
I am experimenting with the dough now. Added some basil and garlic powder to this ball. Really gave the crust more character.
I'm sure it can be taken to a whole 'nother level with a proper mixer and allowing a few hours to let the yeast really do it's thing. Beyond my capabilities at the moment. Just keeping it simple for now.
After school folks come home hungry. Powerfully hungry. Had some leftover shrooms from the pizza and figured I'd see if the little guy would give 'em a try. Didn't cook them into it...just put them on top. Yeah...he picked them off and said, "Dad....what are you doing with these on here......yuck ! ".
What he didn't know was that I tricked him and used ground turkey breast vs. ground beef.
I was also able to sneak in some Vidalia onion and jalapeño into the mix, too. He approves of them, though.
He destroyed 3 of these double-stacked-cheese stuffed tacos & the frijoles, too. Nothing left but the shrooms.
They looked edible to me....cheese in between the shells and all. For mine, I'd want sour cream, avocado and cilantro.
