I’m good with pizza! I’m even better when I get to eat a non-pepperoni pizza!
My kids wanted pizza for dinner. Always. Pepperoni. No, you can’t go wrong with the most popular pizza rendition ever. But mama wanted her own this time!
Pizza happened.
The kids got to make their own with, yup, pepperoni. It’s great fun to get them involved, flour flying everywhere, pizza dough … everywhere. It all amounts to making some great memories and also one day, turning over kitchen duty to them so I can relax a bit (yup, motives).
I really enjoy making our own pizzas and have found that this recipe for homemade pizza dough is my favorite and works perfect every time. I also use the same pizza dough to make some pretty addictive little Pizza Bombs, you have to try them. Oh my yum!
For pizza night this time, I wanted to indulge in a slightly grown up flavor and made a pizza starting with a layer of fig preserves and creating this Caramelized Onion Brie Pizza.
Adulting happily here!
I. Ate. It. All. Granted it was over two days, but I wasn’t about to share this one with my pepperoni lovin’ kids. 😉
It’s great to get creative with pizza night. Just get several of your favorite toppings, sauces and cheeses to mix up and try. Make the pizzas as big as your oven can handle or let everyone make their own individual pizzas. So fun, and lets everyone get in on the fun.
Enjoy!

- 1 Tbls Olive Oil
