Homemade Pizza you Can Make with your Kids

By Jeremiah Freundlich

The majority of people will buy their pizza's or order them from a specialist Pizza place. Sometimes people might overlook the fact that it's actually really easy to make pizza's yourself at home using a few simple ingredients.

You can get recipes for making Pizza dough, but honestly if you want to make your own Pizza super fast the best thing to do is to get a pizza base from your local store. They are so cheap and most stores have them.

One of the essential ingredients for a pizza is the tomato. You can use tomato puree or a tin of tomatoes that is thick. There are also some special pizza sauces you can buy but tomato puree always does the job really well. Just spread the tomato all over the base.

Now you want to put some cheese on your rapidly taking shape pizza. Just slice or grate some cheese onto your base. The type of cheese you use is up to you. Remeber you're making your own pizza so everything is your decision. That's the best part about having complete control over your dinner! Just make sure there aren't too many gaps, unless you don't want too much cheese.

Get ready to use all your creative skills now and get some toppings on your pizza. If you like meat you could try bacon, beef, or chicken. If you're vegetarian you could go for any number of vegetables. You could even mix and match meat and vegetables or just go with cheese and tomato.

It's great fun being creative with your pizza, there are so many ingredients you can use. You can come up with your own creation and give it a name, or you could just eat it! That's normally the best way!

Children are normally excited by making things so why not let them make their own pizza creation. They will probably want to pile it high with everything they can get their hands on but once they've done that once they realize it's not the best way to have a nice tasting pizza so they will learn quickly.

Now it's the time to get the pizza into the oven. It usually takes around fifteen minutes and the oven shouldn't be too hot otherwise it will burn. How big the pizza is and the size of the base will vary the cooking times too so be careful not to overcook or undercook your pizza.

You will need to warm your oven before you put your pizza in, you don't want a pizza that isn't cooked enough, especially if you have raw meat on it, so be careful. - 32190
