pizza day

I’ve always wanted to make a pizza from scratch. I saw this recipe the other day smitten kitchen, and really liked it because it seems easy and the pizza in the picture looks really good.

So I went to the grocery store and got the flour, the yeast (it was expensive considering how small the pack is), eggs, a pack of grated mozzarella and some turkey bacon. I also got some mushrooms and spinach because I wanted to eat more vegetables. I also used a tomato and a green pepper I had in the fridge.

I don’t have a cooking measure cup and spoons so I just followed my feelings on the portion. The recipe said to prepare the dough a night before, but I only let mine sit for about an hour. I read other pizza recipes that said the dough will grow bigger after you let it sit a while but mine didn’t. I wasn’t sure if it’s because I didn’t put enough yeast, I was kinda worried when I put the pizza in the oven but it came out pretty good. I was very happy.
