• 
  
• 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
• 2 teaspoon oregano
• 1 teaspoon marjoram
• 1 teaspoon basil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

1/3 cups warm water

• 1 cup warmed milk
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 4 cups flour
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 tablespoon yeast
• 5 tablespoons vegetable oil
• mozzarella cheese
• whatever toppings you like

sauce: combine diced tomatoes, oregano, marjoram, basil, garlic powder, salt in a blender. pulse for about 30 seconds or until desired consistency (i prefer mine pretty thin.)

dough: combine water, milk, sugar. sprinkle yeast on top. let sit for about 10 minutes. after yeast gets all foamy, add 3 1/2 cups flour, salt and 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. stir till combined, then let the dough rest for 10 minutes. spread out the remaining flour on clean surface (i use my counter. my mom likes to use a canvas cloth on the counter. it's totally whatever you're comfortable using.) scoop out the dough onto the floured surface and knead for about ten minutes... or until desired consistency (yes i use that phrase a lot, but truly it's not a "time thing", it's a "when it feels right thing.") you may need to add more flour if the dough is too sticky. after kneading, place dough in an oiled (vegetable oiled) bowl and cover for about an hour, or until dough has doubled in size. take dough out of bowl and knead for a few more minutes. place dough back in the oiled bowl, cover and place in refrigerator for 4-8 hours. if the dough starts to overflow out of the bowl, just push it down. take out of the refrigerator about 30 minutes prior to using.

pizza: heat oven to 475 F. flour your clean surface and roll out the dough to fit into a half sheet pan (approx. 18"x9".) pour remaining 3 tablespoons oil in half sheet pan, then spread around to cover the surface and edges. place rolled out dough into pan. pour sauce onto rolled out dough. i only use about half the sauce, but you can use more. it all depends on what you like. add mozzarella and other toppings (once again as much as you like.)  place pizza in oven for approx. 25 min, or until cheese is bubbly and browning. enjoy!
