Personally I love a French bread pizza. Go to the day old bread section and get a loaf for 74¢ and cut out a lot of the work. But my wife hates it so I seldom do it anymore.
I frequently use a no knead dough myself. It lasts for about 14 days in the fridge. Days 3 to 10 are the best for pizza.
I used to doctor pizza. I'd grab a $5 freezer cheese pizza and add my own toppings. But these days that's almost twice as much as it costs me to make from scratch.
I'm using unbleached all purpose. Walmart Great Value brand to be even more specific. $2.38 for 5 lb.
I get by. I have a $10 Costco gift card in my emergency supplies. They act as a one time membership card.
I don't have a Costco membership. Or a Costco within 24 miles.
The crust / bake is detailed in other comments.
8 ounces of whole milk moz per pizza.
The sauce is Walmart tinned brand.
Too few to go around. Better to have some clusters for flavor variation.
I'm sure that's allowed
Sounds great.
Is that detector more than 5 years old? Time for a new one.
The math checks out. One pizza per person. $2.77 each plus toppings.
Pizza is stupid cheap to make at home. Domino's is currently offering Minecraft pizzas that are less than twice the size for more than twice the cost. But making it at home means no grease soaked collectable box.
Cost per person before toppings: $2.77 It is very hard to fit even a dollar worth of toppings on a pizza.
I had two giant meatballs leftover from a rare dinner out.
Cost per person: $4.63 Of that $3.40 is the meatball.
Cost per person $3.05
The sauces from earlier in the day and corporate guac and taquitos.
I really need to make a hundred or two and put them in the freezer. Unfortunately while they are individually cheap they are expensive to bulk build.
Cost per person $4.09
I debated all kinds of options for what to do with these jalapenos and just decided to take the option that was going to be the fastest. Made the pepper sauce and then canned them up for later.
Total cost $1.84 Cost per jar, 26¢.
If you read any manual on changing your oil, it's going to tell you to let that thing drip for 15 to 30 minutes to clear out as much of the old oil as possible. Meanwhile, your average oil change place is advertising that they will have you in and out of there in 15 minutes from start to finish. Which means there's no way they're letting it drip the minimum of 15 minutes.
The soil change was so overdue. There is a difference between the service interval and abuse interval of oil. I definitely got into the abuse range on this occasion. I just didn't have the money for the oil and the filter.
And while you're taking care of your own oil change. Make sure to check your brake fluid engine coolant and washer fluid and top them off as necessary.
I tend to map out complex patterns in a spreadsheet so that I can highlight the row I'm working on. The color coding helps make it more readable at a glance than the tiny stitch icons in the printed pattern.
This pattern is only 8 stitches but I'll be repeating it over 80 stitches so I doubled the essential part just to help with readability.
As is my tradition I'll be starting with the cuff and hoping that I'll figure out the body by the time I'm done with those cuffs.
