My husband will have to be patient with the types of meals we will be having over the next couple of weeks. He'll be eating a lot of Soup, Stuffed Peppers and Curries. It's better for him anyways.
You can read Bulk Cooking, Trading and Gluten Free Ideas if you aren't familiar with my style of cooking. I'm a little different.
I made a couple of Vegetable Pizza on Thursday. I had a lot of garlic which was roasted up and ready to use. One was for us, the other went to a neighbour who had given me more Garlic, Flax Seed, Tea and some additional items. All that soup stock I had made the last two weeks, she received a very healthy portion of the finished products. More on that later.

I usually make a thin crust pizza every other week. It usually lands on a Friday and he'll chip in to help with the preparation. I have posted on several types before. I don't normally add meat if I'm using a lot of cheese, but depending on the ingredients at hand, sometimes I will. I LOVE pizza as it's a great way to maximize the ingredients in your fridge. Eating healthy is important, so is cooking smart if you don't want to waste anything. The less Cheese you use the healthier it can be. If you aren't gluten intolerant this is a great evening meal.
Pizza, Pizza and MORE Pizza!
Pizza is the ultimate food in my book. It can be served up so many ways the variations are pretty endless. It also gives you a wonderful way to add variety to your meals throughout the month. This post will cover multiple flavour variations. I posted links to others below.How to Make a Thin Pizza Crust
For all of these Pizza Variations, Preheat the Oven to 450 F.
It's best to use a cookie sheet for the Thin Crust Recipe.
This recipe won't work so well with Pizza Stones unless they are preheated. I've done it, but the trays are easier.
Use either Corn Meal or Sesame Seeds to sprinkle your trays with.Place Pizzas on the centre rack to cook.
