DailyTLC: Piece Be With You

Today is one of those days that has been packed with good analogies, experiences to mark as unique, and small insights. It has not been without pain (my hand is still stinging from a humungous fall crossing the street with my kids earlier today). Sometimes things happen that we don't really understand or see how they possibly could have taken place, but we take a step back and understand that our small lives are a piece of a giant picture.

My cousin has a blog post that fit perfectly into my afternoon. She's older, wiser, and most of all... pretty stinkin' funny. Today's post is a nice little reminder about the big picture.

DailyTLC: Piece Be With You: One of the dynamics of having only male children in the house is that they bring a lot of noise to everything they do.  If they’re playing...

Two ingredients? Really?

Pizza. One of my favorite things in the world. If you choose quality (whole food) ingredients, you can have somewhat of a healthier version...



As much as I love the master boule pizza dough, you can imagine the excitement when I saw a blog post about a 2-ingredient dough that you just knead for 5-8 minutes!

Well, I will have to make my own self-rising flour with baking powder and salt. So...technically that's FOUR ingredients. Anyway, the greek yogurt part sounds interesting.


We use organic when we can. If not, we at least know what we're putting into our own food when we cook it ourselves.


Here is the recipe from the kidspot link:
Ingredients: 
  • 1 cup self-rising flour
  • 1 cup of Greek yogurt
  • Extra flour for dusting the board
Method:
In a bowl, combine the flour and yoghurt and bring together to form a ball.
Turn out onto a floured board to knead and roll.
Knead for 5-8 minutes. Roll into a pizza shape and add toppings.

If you've tried this before, let me know how it turned out!
