Profile For manintveld_nl - Manintveld Manor

My name's Deidra, I'm 42 years old, an Ovarian Cancer survivor of 8 years, no children.

Met my Dutch husband Richard on the internet August 2001, married July 2002.  First time marriage for both.

HAD to live frugally while living in the Netherlands and it sorta stuck with me in the present .. and with my hubby being Dutch, well .. you know what they say .. lol .. !  Although he does get rather free with the $$$ when it comes to his toys and such .. men, big kids they are!  I try to balance what I can with what we have (discounted video games, magazine subscriptions, price matching, etc.).

We have 3 beautiful dogs; Leia 14, Blacks and Spots 1 year old.

French Bread Pizza
We've been making our own pizza since my husband lost his job almost a year ago and he enjoys it more than when we'd get one from a pizza joint or a frozen pizza from the store. We switch between homemade crust made from the bread machine to one I make from french bread. We usually wait until there's a sale on french bread loaves (.79 cents currently) and stock up on them and freeze for future use. I cut the loaf down the middle and then cut in half to make 4 pieces. Spread the slice with spaghetti sauce and our favorite toppings are loads of pepperoni, diced onions, diced green pepper and mozzarella cheese. I sprinkle a bit of oregano, garlic powder and parmesan over the top and bake for 20 min. on 400F. Simple yet, tasty! ... View related article.

RE: Bread from Bread Machine is Small
I'm going to guess your bread maker is a 1 1/2 to 2 lb. loaf maker and your mix may have been for a 1 lb. loaf. Read what size loaf the box indicates and if it's for a 1 lb, I would use two mixes if your maker is large. The hole is inevitable .. at least it doesn't affect the taste .. lol! ...
