Eating my first home made Pizza (sort of) [View all]

.

Bought a frozen "Italian Melt" 10" pizza today - just a real simple pizza - a mix of cheddar and mozzarella, and a garlic spread.

Was an experiment - live too far in the boonies to get delivery, and no patience, or equipment to literally start from scratch.

Had a plan tho - it worked

Nuked some already cooked/frozen meatballs, sliced them and put them on the pizza halfway through cooking (gas oven), along with a freshly sliced tomato - all spread around pretty.

When almost done, I put a whole green onion (with a 1-1/2" white bulb) picked from my outside planters - sliced and diced on top - and cooked for two more minutes.

I've read that you get more of the benefits from tomatoes when cooked (antioxidants) and more from onions when raw - that's why I used that schedule.

Pretty good, but next time two onions, mushrooms, and add more garlic.

It'll get better.
