HOMEMADE PIZZA ♡

My babe and I have been making homemade pizza for a while now. =)

All you need is .. Instant pizza dough mix (or make it from scratch if you're really feeling martha-ish), pizza sauce, & toppings. We always use a variety of cheeses, onions, pepperoni, and peppers. I am a pepper-oholic. Red peppers are my favorite and soooo sweet when cooked. Green peppers are good too.

Finished results
 
 
I could eat cooked peppers on everything!
This was our first time ever making a pizza at home! It came out yummmy! Don't mind my 20+ year old cookie sheet. We have a pizza stone but I wanted to experiment. & We've used the pizza stone every time since.
Just onions on this one. yum


I swear my cookie sheets don't look this bad (or maybe they do) haha.
 
 
Pizza successss

BROCCOLI SALAD ♡

 

So yummy! Found the recipe on Pinterest and made it my own a bit by changing some ingredients :)

If you like broccoli you will love this.

It's originally a side dish but after making it I realized it would be amazing on top of a baked potato!


INGREDIENTS
 




    • 1 head fresh broccoli, cut into bite size pieces
    • 1/4 cup red onion, chopped
    • 16 oz bacon cooked and chopped
    • Sharp/cheddar cheese block, cut into small cubes
    • Cherry tomatoes, cut in half
    • 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
    • 2 tablespoons white sugar
    • 1/2 cup mayonnaise/mayo
     
     
     
     
    DIRECTIONS
     
    1. Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble and set aside.
    2. In a medium bowl, combine the broccoli, onion, tomatoes, and cheese. In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, sugar and mayonnaise. Pour over broccoli mixture, and toss until well mixed. Refrigerate for at least two hours.
    3. Before serving, toss salad with crumbled bacon.
     
     
     
     
     
     
    This was after mixing everything (broccoli, onion, tomato, cheese) minus the bacon & sauce.
    The sauce ingredients seemed odd to me at first but it is so good!
    Try it!
