At our house Friday night means pizza for dinner. I know it's not the healthiest meal but it's one of the few meals that all 4 of us will eat. We used to order delivery (1 medium and 1 large) and it cost $25, that's $100 a month and $1200 a year.....for pizza. Once I really thought about it I realized that is pretty ridiculous to spend that much money on pizza. It took a few tries but I found a great recipe for making pizza dough in my breadmaker and I now make our pizza from scratch. I did the math and my homemade version costs $3 (some times a little less if I can find a good sale).
The ingredients, not including the dough.
The end result...cheese pizza for me and the girls and pepperoni with no cheese for Colin. Colin has enough for two meals out of his but now that Hannah is eating too there is ususally only enough for Hannah and Lily to get a second meal out of ours. Hannah really puts a dent into the pizza too, she eat's two pieces, more than Lily eats and the same as I eat, all on her own. She is 15 months and still less than 20 lbs so we are wondering where all the food goes.
