2 more frugal tips
Posted in Household tips
1. Make your own pizza instead of ordering out. Homemade pizza is usually much healthier as well.
Here is our favorite pizza dough recipe:
1 pkg. yeast
¾ cup warm water
Mix and let stand at least 5 minutes.
1 egg
½ tsp. salt
½ tsp. sugar
¼ cup oil
2 ½ cups flour
Add to the yeast. Mix well. Let rise 1 hour.
2. Use a canned spaghetti sauce rather than pizza sauce on pizza. I have always used Hunt's spaghetti sauce on our pizzas. We have the found the taste to be BETTER and it is a lot cheaper than jarred pizza sauce.

When my daughter was in highschool, we made our pizza - and it was such fun. I was a single parent and had a friend who was also. So occasionally we would get together and make pizza. We were using cookie sheets - 3 of them - and piling on the goodies. Finally it got too expensive with all the meats and cheese the youngins just HAD to have. But, boy was it ever good. Now I live close to my daughter and we talk about doing it again sometime just for the FUN!!

Thank you for the recipe! I love to make homemade pizza - although I'm guilty of buying a couple for the freezer when I go to Costco!

Hi Penni!
I have used that sauce too. I added a couple of things.
1 small can tomato paste
1/4 Cup of parmesan cheese
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp basil
dusting of garlic sauce
dusting of onion powder
It is so yummy! I also make my own. I agree it is better!
