Pizza - not so completely homemade!

When you are getting ready to pack you bags and go on a holiday trip, eating something good and not too complicated is always a good idea. I was not in the mood for pasta.


Our Supermarkets offer roll out pizza dough. There are some good quality ones and there are others.
It takes a couple of tries to find the one that does not taste like cardboard or like a soggy sponge.

Then the preparation is fairly simple. Just roll out the dough with the baking paper on a baking dish and toss all you like on top and stick it in the oven. If just are too lazy to look for your rolling pin, use a glass to strech out the dough a bit more.


When you are lucky and have a pizza stone like I do, that works even better on this ready made doughs. They get enough heat to create a good crust.

I did not fuss with the ingredients, tomato sauce and just some good Italian salami, lots of grated cheese and some dried oregano and pepper.



Preheat the oven to the highest temperature 250 -270  C. Bake for 15 - 20 min.
Transfer the pizza to a wooden board and cut it up with a very sharp knife or a good pizza cutter.


Sitting outside on the balcony and enjoying one of the last warm October days makes going on a holiday trip even better.


Coming down from some stressful weeks and not running until the last minute is something I often do now. I use one more day off to get in the mood.
Years ago I ran until the last minute and hopped on the plane.
