Cooking with Martha
Cooking with Martha
I want to be a cook. I try to make yummy stuff. My kids say they like what I make, usually. So tonight I’m inspired. I wanted to make wheat crust, chicken pesto pizza. I didn’t plan well. By 8 pm the pizza was done. It sucked. The crust was rubber. It didn’t cook well. I don’t get it. I think I’m either cursed or cooking challenged. I want a personal chef.

Hmmm, I bet it was good anyway. I watch Rachel Ray and Martha- theirs always turns out perfect. I guess that is why they get paid the BIG BUCKS!

Did you say, “BAM”? Maybe that does the trick.

I think pizza crust is tricky. Trader Joe’s has whole wheat(or they used to anyway) pizza dough that you roll out yourself and it makes awesome pizza. You can make it as thin or thick as you want. It’s a forgivable cheat. Semi-homemade!

sorry, that was me.

yeah, certain things are okay to cheat on. i’ve never tasted a cake that was better than betty crocker super moist, so why spend money and go to extra work to make an inferior cake?
i have to imagine pizza crust falls into that same category.

sounds like it was a good idea….

Ok, then we can change that to a personal shopper who will pick up all the things I can neer get to the store to buy on my own. Dang it- I need a personal something!

you should do tortilla pizzas.

Or the good ol stand-by: english muffin pizzas. Randy and I made them for the Bang’s kids once- they liked them too!

Yes, I love to make those English Muffin pizzas. Dan thought I was crazy when I first made them. Easy to make and yummy to eat.

guess you guys have english muffins just lying around…

Nope. They are at the store. Like the rest of the food you buy and eat.

if you’re going to the store, why not just buy real pizza crust?

I’ve never had an english muffin pizza, but it sounds like they might taste better than regular pizza crust.
I’ll have to try one. I can’t think about those kind of things for another couple weeks, though.
