Our Elizabeth D. posted a link on her tumblr blog (tumblog? I'm not sure how to spell that . . .) to this Quick Pizza Margherita recipe. I was happy to see it, because I love a good margherita pizza, but have never made it myself! And the word "quick" is always good. Thank you, Elizabeth.
I almost always order a margherita pizza if I'm at a restaurant that offers it. It's interesting to see how different places can make such a simple formula really triumphant, or just okay, or truly awful.
So I made it on Friday night and it turned out yummy and we all three loved it. Hooray! :)
Also, the only ingredients I didn't have on hand already were the tomatoes and the crust, so that was nice. It was economical. I just served it with a salad.
The only thing I will do differently next time is use different dough. I used the refrigerated Pillsbury pizza dough that comes in a tube, and you know, I think it's the same as their biscuit dough. The crust tasted exactly like Grands biscuits. So next time I'll get Trader Joe's pizza dough, which does not taste like biscuits. :D
I guess you could also make your own dough ahead of time and freeze it. Do any of you make pizza dough regularly? Do you freeze it?
In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him.
