Be your own cook!

Hey guys!

So last weekend my family and i had these huge cravings for pizza...but we didnt want to have all that greasy mess. Plus...we're trying to have a healthy lifestyle. We decided to look up for homemade pizza dough, and it was such a success! It was delicious and filled us up in a good way! I wanted to share it with you guys...its a great way to involve your kids or even do it as a "date night" with your loved ones :)


Here are the things youre going to need:

2 1/2 c. flour
2 3/4 tsp. baking powder (if using baking soda use half and omit salt)
1 tsp. salt
1 tbsp. oil
3/4 to 1 c. water

Mix dry ingredients. add 3/4 cup water and oil. Stir until it forms a ball. If dough is stiff, add more water. The dough will be soft, not sticky. Knead on a floured surface for 3-4 minutes. Bake at 400°F for 15-25 minutes.


No need for a pizza pan, we used our cookie sheet. Before you put it on we put non stick spray to prevent it to stick to the pan. Just spread/stretch on your baking sheet. May take awhile, but its worth it.



We had a bbq chicken pizza with grilled onions. Just basically spread bbq sauce (about a 1 cup). Leftover chicken and grilled our onions. Topped the pizza and baked it.

The best thing about pizza is that you could be creative with it! Tell me how yours came out! And what kind of toppings you put. And let me know if you have any questions :)
