Some weeks are crazier than others and this one has been on the scale of 11/10. All good stuff going on, just lots of it at one time and trying to sort it all out can stretch my brain…to which my husband has a lovely saying for (leaving that one for the vlog).
In the same breath, it was also a good week to stretch some pizza dough and my cast iron repertoire. Watch this week’s video for my take on cast iron pizza and how never saying never is always a good idea. Because life and pizza are kinda the same…well, that may also be a stretch, but you’ll get it once you watch. I hope. And always, always cheese makes everything better – even if you don’t have the right cheese. But is there really a “wrong” cheese? I think not. Capisce? (I googled that, so I hope I’m both spelling and using it correctly.) If not, “scusa me.”
Taste buds don’t judge appearances.
Making healthy meals at home doesn’t have to be hard, and you don’t have to have a complex meal-planning system. Check out these 5 Ways to Prepare Healthy Meals at Home with Hearty Sol!
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 Cast Iron Pizza Dough
- 1 lb sausage, browned and drained
- 1 can tomato sauce 8 oz.
- 1 small onion, sauted with sausage
- 1 bell pepper or several mini sweet peppers, cut and sauted with sausage and onion
- 1 tbsp italian seasoning sprinkle over top of meat and veggies
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Make pizza dough and let rise while preparing toppings.
- Saute onion, peppers and sausage. Drain.
- Spread dough into slightly greased cast iron skillet (can use any size – larger the skillet, thinner the dough.)
- Pour tomato sauce evenly over dough and spread meat and veggies over.
- Top with italian seasoning and cheese.
- Bake at 425 until browned and bubbly.
Ingredients
- 2 c White Lily Bread Flour (or any all purpose flour)
- 1 tbsp live active yeast
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 2/3 c lukewarm water
Instructions
- Mix 1 cup of flour with all other ingredients.
- Add only what you need of 2nd cup of flour to form a “loose” ball – for best results, USE YOUR HANDS. Embrace it, it’s fun!
- Let the dough rest 10-15 minutes in a covered bowl, after rolling the ball in a little EVOO (that’s extra virgin olive oil – it’s extra good) OR put the bowl in a 200 degree warmed oven that you TURN OFF after it reaches 200 degrees.
- Spread out onto your choice of pizza pan or pizza stone (I also like to sprinkle a little corn meal on my stone to keep the crust from sticking) and add your favorite toppings
- Bake at 375 degrees for around 15 minutes or until bubbly. Take out of oven. Eat.

Pretty nice post. I just stumbled upon your blog and wanted to say that I have truly enjoyed surfing around your blog posts. After all I will be subscribing to your feed and I hope you write again very soon!
Thank you! I’m obviously horrible at realizing I have comments on here. I appreciate you being here!
I made some of this pizza. Turned out well. Thanks for sharing
Hello,
Just a couple of things I’d like to say.
People amaze me the way they express themselves and it’s so entertaining. Its definately an art.
And coming from the logging industry in the north, that has suffered some hard blows in recent years, I have to say I appreciate your hard working husband.
I had a son that was interested in logging and when we attempted to start our own logging business I used to tell him it will teach you just how hard some people work for little pay. I think farming is like that too.
Like the hats .Need to order one soon.
Keep up the good entertainment.

I just made these with ground chicken instead of turkey… wonderful.

I always not only drain my meat, but rinse it with hot water. This will get all of the grease off. Then I leave it sitting in the collander over couple of paper towels for a few minutes to get as much water off as it can. Then I will bag or freeze it. And we always do salt, pepper, and garlic in all of our ground beef recipes.

That looks great – I had a spicy dish last night. It has to be done, even during the summer months! Most of all it helps clear the airwaves and definitely makes me feel fresher and happier 😀
