Day 6 - Pizza Saturday


So we went out last night. A lot of wine was consumed, and not much dinner. Felt seedy all day but we did manage to get to the supermarket. We spend $28.30, hard decisions were made but we came in under our weekly target budget of $30!

We splurged on olives and brie for the pizzas we made for dinner. Man, I am proud of these pizzas. Homemade pizza dough and sauce, thanks to Gordon Ramsay's "World Kitchen" book. I have to say that this is the best recipe book, the recipes are spot on and well tested.



Chef Hubby's tip is to put the grated cheese on first, just after the pizza sauce and then place other ingredients on top. That way the pizza looks more appetizing.







Toppings we scraped together from the pantry - tomato pizza sauce, mushrooms, olives, capers, roast chicken, cheese, and spinach.


The second pizza is garlic pizza sauce (roast a garlic bulb, squeeze out the soft garlic, mash with olive oil and finely chopped rosemary) cheese, anchovies, cranberries, brie, and some rocket thrown on top at the last minute.

Yummy! And made by hand. Perfect cure for our Friday night...
