It’s pizza night, and everyone is asking for their favorite. Unfortunately, no one agrees on a single recipe. How can you please everyone when they all want something different? With pizza, it’s easy. Make individual pizzas. Everyone can pick their own toppings and be pleased with their meal.

 

When you make individual pizzas, everyone gets what they want. That means no more fighting and disappointment. Your kindergartener gets their favorite cheese while your teen gets their vegetarian pizza. As for you, you don’t need to settle for part of their choices. You can make your own choice and create a pizza you’ve been longing to try.

 

What kind of pizza would you want if you got the chance? Have you ever thought about it? Maybe some delicious prosciutto with tomatoes and smoked cheese, or perhaps you’d like to put mushrooms and spinach on yours. Making individual pizzas will please everyone so even you will get to indulge in your favorites.

 

Before you have your family come into the kitchen to pile on their favorite toppings, have everything ready. Roll out all the crusts so there is no waiting. Prepare the toppings and set them out on the table so everyone can reach them easily without making a mess.

 

You can have everyone follow pizza recipes or let them follow their inspiration. After all, it will be their pizza. Before pizza night, make a list of toppings you need so everyone has something they like on hand and you don’t waste time and money prepping an ingredient no one wants.

 

While you can use flat bread or those partially baked crusts from the store, why bother? The premade crusts are full of preservatives. You can often find pizza dough in your grocery store’s refrigerated section just waiting to be used. Even better yet, you can find a delicious, simple pizza dough recipe and make it yourself. This is the best way to get a great tasting crust and you know what is in it.

 

Next comes the sauce. Do you just set out a jar of spaghetti sauce and a spoon? Well, you could, but a quick homemade pizza sauce recipe will taste a lot better. A simple sauce only takes a little while to make. Pick up a few tomatoes, some herbs and let the stove do its work. You may want to consider other types of sauce as well. Not every pizza sauce is made from tomatoes. Try a white sauce, simple olive oil or even a plain crust without a sauce. Go ahead and experiment a bit.

 

Try out individual pizzas on your next pizza night. You’ll find it is very convenient and everyone is happy; even you. You’ll save a lot of money making them at home in comparison to taking everyone out. No one has to compromise on toppings and everyone is happy. Cleaning up afterwards is simple. If there are any leftovers, they can be eaten cold or rewarmed in the oven the next morning. You’ll soon hear everyone asking when their next pizza night will be.
