Pizza

Pizza, I forgot the pizza. It was Chicago style deep dish pizza. One of the two recipes so far that get a definite retry. The other is the beef stew. The only real problem with the pizza was that the sauce was too salty, but that was my fault, or Mom's. She told me to add salt and I added too much apparently. Next time it will get more toppings. We had one plain and one with kielbasa left over from the red beans. No wonder the food budget is over this month. All these exotic ingredients. And beef. We had to actually buy beef since all our cows are good for is hamburger. We get some nice lean hamburger though, don't have to drain it at all. This is what happens when the cow is 12 or more years old before she gets eaten. Always hamburger, except the killer cow. She got made into steaks. Killed her before she killed someone. Sweet revenge, or is that prevenge?

One problem we have noticed with all these recipes is the servings. For example the pizzas. It made two deep dish nine inch pizzas and the servings said 4 - 6. Four to six? Who is going to eat a third of one of those things in a sitting, much less a half? We had five adults and two kids eating them and still had a quarter left over. We must be light eaters or they don't plan on having anything for dinner besides a huge chunk of dough, cheese, and tomato sauce. We have to devote a week to leftovers. Or is this an excuse to not cook... Anyway we have only two recipes left in this issue. Roman mac and cheese (that is not what they call it, but that is what it is) and Thai Chicken. Bring on the sheep cheese, and oyster and fish sauce. Better start milking those sheep now.
