Part of what makes cooking within reach on a (mostly) daily basis is having some stuff in your back pocket that can be whipped up in a matter of minutes after a long day. Homemade pizza is my go-to meal.
I do some cheating here. I don't make my own dough from scratch. I buy a package of 89 cent dough mix, and add a half cup of hot water. Use some flour to roll it our, and BAM, dough! Easy, cheap, not homemade, but fairly close. I also cheated by not using homemade pizza sauce. I really like the Barilla Tomato and Basil Sauce. It has great flavor, low in calories. I do make my own sauce from time to time, but when it's about quick and easy cooking, a good jar sauce works for me.
You can top your pizza with anything you'd like. I use part skim shredded mozzarella, part skim ricotta cheese, a sprinkle of goat cheese, and turkey pepperoni. The end result tasted so good, even better than delivery pizza to me at a fraction of the cost. Not the world's most beautiful pizza, but really tasty. Two thumbs up from my husband.
Please forgive the quality of pictures, I've been taking them on my phone to expedite the process instead of using my camera!
