PIZZA! PIZZA!!

Growing up with a big family and a mom that couldn't cook, one of my favorites nights was Fridays when my mom would order pizza. That was the 90's friendly delivery men, 30 min waits time or else, that was the life. Nowadays, unless you use a coupon or call on a special night which is almost NEVER Friday a large pizza with 3 topping (Pepperoni, Bacon, Spinach) can cost you $15. Which for some doesn't seem like much but $45 for 3 pizza's can be a bit much to pay for a stress free Friday. So my Broke Girls words of advice : Make your own pizza. Pizza Dough can cost from $.99 -$1.99 depending on what store you visit. Pizza sauce will cost you $2.99, add the Pepperoni, bacon, spinach, and cheese you have a start up cost of maybe $15. But the great thing here is you can make up to 4 pizza's. If your the baking type, feel free to make your own pizza dough. The other added bonus - you don't have to do anything!!! Let the kids do it themselves, cut the dough into mini pizza's,  sit down and watch them bake, pull out leftovers from the fridge, mushrooms, peppers, sausage, chicken, tomatoes, even hot dogs for the fearless the list is endless! Trust me! this is a sleepover saver! Have fun and send me some pictures of your creations!
