For my fourth post, I wanted to do something that isn’t a dessert. So I decided to make dinner for my family. I was really in the mood for a nice and yummy pizza, so that’s what I made. My delicious pizza had a world class homemade sauce on it and three toppings: spinach, goat cheese….
and BACON! Well, my mom told me that bacon is very popular in the blogosphere, so I included that as my third topping.
I’m spraying olive oil into a large bowl. This is where the pizza dough is going to rise.
The pizza dough ingredients are mixed in a food processor.
Yeast is mixed with warm water and poured into the food processor. The yeast is what’s going to help the dough rise.
Once the dough is mixed together, it is put on a floured surface and kneaded with your hands. (It might be a little messy!)
Next put the dough in the greased bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and put it in a warm place to rise. I put it in the oven while it was turned off.
When it’s done rising, punch the dough down with a fist. Punch it like you mean it!
Flatten it into a pizza shape with a rolling pin.
Put it on a pizza pan and display for all to see.
I made my own homemade sauce too. It was really easy!
These are the three toppings that I chose for my masterpiece.
Say “Cheese!”
After the pizza is all baked, it is then that you put on the fresh spinach.
That looks yummy!
Extreme close-up!
Want a slice? What’s your favorite pizza topping?
If you like pizza, this is one that will enter your favorites list. And even a kid can make it… like me!

Brooks, you’re awesome. I didn’t have enough guts to make my own pizza dough until I was about 30 years old (irrational fear of yeast). Your family must have been so happy with this dinner!
Homemade pizza is the best! Your crust and sauce looks great! I love veggie toppings-artichokes, mushrooms, roasted peppers, and spinach are my favorite! Nice work!

This looks fab. I also love that you rolled your pizza dough out on what appears to be a Tupperware silicone mat.

Friday is pizza night at our house, and although I have a shrimp pesto pizza planned, this one looks fantastic! I adore goat cheese, and the fresh spinach on top brings it all together. Yum, indeed!
