They were great. Ive never made a homemade pizza, and I know i could just google it but I want something that I know will be good. So any help will be greatly appreciated.

Use my pizza dough recipe, add any pizza sauce and whatever toppings you like. I usually throw turkey pepperoni on it and some mozzarella cheese.

I find that the dough turns out better when it is round, as opposed to rectangle.

Lux,
We are all coming to your house for a meal. You have all the recipes, I hope you can cook too.
I'll have to post my Italian grandmothers sauce recipe (and meatballs too). I just have to dig it out.

Yeah I like to cook. It is a creative outlet for me. Plus I like to eat. That is the key.

Would love a good sauce and meatball recipe. I usually just buy it at the store and doctor it up until I like it.

Tomato Sauce

1 large onion + 15 shakes of garlic powder (brown in a little oil)

2 28 oz cans of crushed tomatoes
(fill each with water and add to sauce)

2 6 oz cans tomato paste
(fill each can 3 times with water and add to sauce)

1 or 2 cans tomato sauce (optional)

1 can tomato puree or whole tomatoe (optional)

Add (Since this was never actually written down, everything is couted in shakes)

Oregano 12
Parsley 12
Basil 12
Red Pepper 2 to 5 depending on taste
Salt 4
Pepper 8
Garlic Powder 2

Mix all ingredients in a large sauce pot. Bring to a boil on medium-high. Reduce heat to just under medium and simmer about to 1 hour uncovered. Then cook 2 to 2 hours covered.
You can add your meatballs (see meatball recipe) for the last 2 2 hours. Sausage can also be added (any type you like). Just boild the sausage first and cut into small 2 to 3 in pieces and add to mix.

Meatballs (To go with Tomato Sauce recipe)

2 lbs hamburger or meatloaf mix
(meatloaf mix is more moist I believe it is beef, pork, and veal)

1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs

4 eggs

20 shakes of salt

20 shakes of pepper

to 1 cup water (add and add more if necessary while mixing to keep moist)

Mix all ingredients together (by hand no utelsils) in a mixing bowl.

Cover bottom of skillet (I use cast iron) with oil and heat on medium.

While oil is heating, make the meatballs. Take a hand full of mixture and compress into an oval shape about the size of your palm. (For those of you with bigger or smaller hands, make then about 2 in by 3 in). These should not be round, but more oval and flattened on the top and bottom.
Pat each meatball with a little water and place in the hot oil. Fry them until almost burnt (this helps with the consistency).
When cooled, add them to your sauce for the last 2 2 hours and let the sauce soak in.

Chicken and Potatoes

In an electric frying pan, brown boneless chicken breasts lightly in a little oil. Add a few shakes each of salt, pepper, parsley, onion, and garlic. Add 1 small can of tomatoe sauce and a little water (so it wont stick). Cook for about 15 minutes. Add a couple of potatoes (cubed) and cover. Cook about 1- 1 hours. Add water as necessary to keep it moist.
Makes a great meal with a loaf fresh bread.

I am waiting for the General Tso recipe. yummy

Although, with my cooking skills, may be safer just to order from the local Chinese place.
