Laura's Week 6 Meal

Sorry for the late posting. Homework has had me very busy. This weeks meal was delicious. We made pizza using the same crust as Rachelle's. The only thing that didn't work so well was that the pizza stuck to one of the trays that we used. I did however use an airbake tray for the other pizza and it worked well since the holes in the bottom of it prevented the pizza from sticking.
I also made the garlic chicken pizza for one of mine. For the second pizza I made a Hawaiian pizza with homemade sauce.
I failed yet again at putting the SD card in my camera so unfortunately I do not have any pictures but I can tell you that they actually looked pretty tasty. I used Hidden Valley Ranch to make the sauce for the garlic chicken pizza which I would not suggest. It is a very sour ranch and didn't work well with the pizza. Overall the pizza was very good though. I would definitely make this again with a few tweaks.

Here are my numbers:

From Safeway:
Canadian Bacon: $3.49

From Albertsons:
Tomato Sauce: $2.89 for 28 oz (in retrospect, I should have just used small cans because I didn't use barely any of it)
Wheat Germ: $5.29
Yellow Cornmeal: $2.69
Pineapple Chopped: $1.49
Flaxseed Meal: $4.79
Tomato Puree: $1.00 (28 oz)
Mozzarella Cheese: $7.99
Cooked Chicken: $3.50

Here is the recipe for my sauce from Allrecipes.com:

Ingredients

  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil
  • 1 (29 ounce) can tomato puree
  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Directions

  1. In a large saucepan, saute garlic in oil until tender. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes or until sauce reaches desired thickness. Use in Deep-Dish Sausage Pizza, Tomato Artichoke Chicken or any recipe that calls for pizza sauce. Sauce may be refrigerated for up to 1 week. 

Have a great week,

Laura
