Cost of pizza

[Fly Rod]

Stopped buying pizza back a few years ago. Make my own with a bunch of extra toppings. Three 14 inch home made pizzas cost me about 12 bucks with several differant toppings such as a meat topping, oinons, peppers, mushrooms black olives and maybe some anchovies. Get my3 bags of dough from Market Basket at 1.50 a bag.

To make a crusted bottom wipe some olive oil on the pizza pan before laying the dough in the pan.

Pizza crust is stupid-easy to make from scratch. Not counting the oven gas, a home-made pizza costs us about $3.

I made it from scratch for years before realizing that the frozen dough at the store was just as good, or even better as it's been worked longer. Many pizza shops will also sell dough for a buck a ball.

Only reason I'd make it is to control the flours, a little rye adds a nice nutty flavor without the heavy texture of wheat.

Some dough, DOP tomatoes for sauce, decent cheese and they're probably 6-8 bucks each not including labor.

Duck prosciutto pizza with carmelized onion,rosemary and an occasional mound of stilton is a good pie.
