pizza

So, the other day my friends and I decided that we were going to make pizza for another friend's birthday. I was really exited because I haven't made much dinnerwise and would like to try my skills (I gotta have some since my mom's cooking is so good, right?) So, I called my mom and she said she would email me the recipie when she got home. Oh the wonders of the internet. That day I recieved three emails...

One from my dad that started out:

"Go down to the Store.

Go the the Fozen foods aisle

Get the most expensive pizza you can find.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Dad

P.S.
1 package activated yeast
1 cup warm water (105 to 115 F)
1 teaspoon Sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoon vegetable or olive oil
2-1/2 cups flour

Combine the yeast, water and sugar
Stir
Let rest for 5 minutes
Add the rest."

The other three were from my mom. One was the sauce and toppings we usually put on:

"Hi Clare,
Here is a sauce recipe and possible toppings. I'll look for a chicken recipe and send it next.
Mom

SAUCE
1 can (8oz) tomato sauce
2 tsp dried oregano leaves
minced garlic
1 medium chopped onion

2 cups mozzarella cheese
I buy the bulk mild Italian sausage, fry it and then put it on the pizza.
peppers (green and red)
fresh mushrooms
black olives
onion slices
Pepperoni"

The other two were chicken pizza recipies. My friends and I decided that we would use chicken and peperoni for the meat choice and then we chose black olives, green peppers, onion, mushrooms, cheese, and artichokes. Yes, artichokes. They weren't bad actually. I wouldn't do it all the time, but it was good difference-wise. The dough was a little hard, it might have needed to rise a little more, but it was good. So, I would like to pat myself (and my friends) on the back for a job well done. I would urge anyone who reads this to use the recipie and let me know what you think. You'll be in for a treat!
