You can use the tomato sauce recipe we posted last week, the dough from Calzones and whatever ingredients you want to make delicious home-made pizza! We love having pizza potlucks where the host makes the dough and sauce and a few people bring cheese and toppings... everyone can then assemble the pizzas together, see below for how to shape and assemble your pizzas
the dough recipe should make 2 medium sized pizzas, so divide the dough in half and roll into balls.
Take one of the balls of dough and flatten it with your hand. You can now either play pizza-chef and try tossing it in the air with a little spin (I like to have a friend there to catch it in case I drop it), or use a rolling pin or your hands to flatten it into an even circle (or square or heart or rectangle!)
Lightly spread corn meal or brush olive oil on your pan, place the pizza on it and then start topping! bake in a 375 degree oven for at least 20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the toppings heated.
