Have a Frugal Pizza Night

Every Friday I make pizza. I figure this saves $25 or over every week.

Dough:

This make 2 pizzas.

• 2 cups water
• 2 Tbsp. oil
• 1 tsp. salt
• 6 cups flour
• 2 Tbsp. yeast (2 packets)

I use this in my bread machine but I'm sure it could be adapted to a traditional recipe or you can buy white bread dough in the freezer section cheap.

Sauce:

• 10 1/2 oz. tomato puree
• 1/4 cup water
• 1/2 Tbsp. sugar
• 1 Tbsp. oil
• 1 tsp. oregano
• 1 tsp. basil
• 1/2 tsp. thyme
• 1 tsp. garlic
• 1 tsp. lemon juice
• 1/2 tsp. salt

Bring all ingredients to boil then simmer on low for 15 minutes stirring occasionally.

When sauce and dough are ready put:

1/2 lb. grated mozzarella and sprinkle evenly with Parmesan cheese. Then add any other toppings you like.
