Pizza Base

Pizza is a great way to use up the left overs in the fridge. Great toppings include baked dinner (meat, potato, pumpkin), sausages, burrito mince plus other veges lurking in the fridge (spinach, pinapple, mushrooms).

Making your own base is easy:

 INGREDIENTS:

• 3 cups SR flour(I use wholemeal)
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 dessertspoon olive oil
• 1 1/4 cups cold water

DIRECTIONS:

1. Mix it all in a box and knead until in a ball.
2. Divide into three or four pieces depending on size of pizzas
3. I find it better to cook the base only for 10-20min at 180deg to keep from going soggy.
4. Put on topping and cheese and cook for a further 20min or until cheese browns.
5. Enjoy

GENERAL BENEFITS: Much healthier that frozen or take away pizza.

TIGHTWAD BENEFITS:Cheaper than buying a base and using up left overs saves money too.

GREEN BENEFITS: Less packaging and food waste.
