NB. This is a scheduled post. I have written several posts for this week and will be published on a schedule until I get back on Wednesday.

Pizza is most probably the first choice when a family decides to order in for snacks or dinner. And why wouldn’t it be? It’s so yummy, plus it has both carbohydrates and protein in it what with the dough and the meat toppings. Those who love to eat healthier have the option to add veggies, too. Pizza is very versatile, you can have any topping you want.

That said, why not make your own pizza? Homemade pizza can be just as delicious. It is easy to make and can be a great bonding activity with you and your kids. Besides, teaching kids how to make their own food is a very productive way for them spend their afternoon. Not to mention, homemade pizza is less expensive than ordering in.

One lazy afternoon, the kids and I made 3-cheese French Bread Pizza. Needless to say, it was so much fun! There are very few ingredients and there are even less steps in making this pizza.

For this yummy homemade pizza, you will need the following:

• French Bread (Baguette)
• Tomato Sauce
• Three types of chese. I used Mozzarella, Cheddar and Apetina.

During my last trip to the supermarket, I saw Arla Apetina and had this idea of making the pizza at home, so decided to buy a brick. Then I bought the Coon shredded cheese, as it already has both Mozzarella and Cheddar in one pack, which made things easier for me.

All I did was cut the bread in half, lengthwise, spread some tomato sauce on it (make sure not to put on too much or the pizza will turn soggy) and sprinkled a generous amount of the grated Mozzarella and Cheddar. I then crumbled some Apetina on top. I didn’t even need to call Dominos and speak with their call center to place an order this time! I think you’ll agree that my French Bread Pizza is snack perfection.

Really nice, isn’t it? Have a closer look.

Finally, I popped the bread in the oven for eight minutes until the cheese have melted and the bread crisp on the outside.

Try this at home – it’s quick and easy. Making homemade pizza is a fun and filling way to spend an afternoon with your family.
