Leftovers Pizza

If you haven't caught on yet, my diet isn't super restricted, except that we don't buy prepackaged or processed foods. Instead, we make our own.

We had leftover London Broil and decided to make pizza. Completely soy free pizza, with no preservatives or chemicals that probably  hide soy without my knowledge. Here are the necessary recipes:

Pizza Dough (the best you'll ever taste)
Ingredients
2 cups bread flour (not all-purpose or self-rising. bread flour.)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons molasses
2.5 teaspoons yeast
1 cup warm water (no warmer than 110 Fahrenheit, or you'll kill the yeast)

Directions
Dissolve yeast in warm water for 10 minutes. Combine all other ingredients in a large bowl. Pour and stir in yeast, working dough into ball. Flour the top of the dough, cover with a damp cloth and let set for one hour.

After one hour, punch down the dough. At this point you can wrap it air-tight and freeze it for future use, or use immediately. When baking, preheat oven to 350 Fahrenheit and bake for 20 minutes.

Tip: When rolling out the pizza dough, it actually helps to toss it from hand to hand; the dough rolls out much easier afterward.

Pizza Sauce
Ingredients
1 6 ounce can tomato paste (ingredients = tomatoes. That's all.)
1 cup warm water
3 tablespoons parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon minced garlic OR 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
3/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon oregano
1/4 teaspoon marjoram
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
salt to taste

Directions
Combine all ingredients except water into a bowl. Heat water until warm and stir in. Let sit 20-30 minutes before using.

So after we had the dough rolled out, we decorated it:

That's leftover London Broil with sauteed mushrooms, peppers, and onions plus mozzarella cheese. Very tasty and soy free.

The finished product:

We won't be winning any style points, but it was super tasty.

And a sidenote - I highly recommend a pizza stone. Ours came from Bed, Bath, and Beyond. It's wonderful to bake with and we never have a problem with food sticking. It looks dirty because it can't be washed with soap, just hot water. Apparently the stone will soak up the suds and make food taste like soap. Yuck. So it collects little shadows of former food projects over time.

What kind of pizza will you make?
