I’ve posted a couple of different pizza recipes on here before, including a post about how to do the basics, but this particular pizza was so good, I felt that it warranted its own post! You can make it spicy with hot sauce if you want, or you can keep it traditional. Either way, once

It’s been a hot minute since I last updated the blog, but I thank you all for being patient with me during these difficult times. I’ve got a few things loaded up for you that I’ve decided were worth putting up for your enjoyment. Mostly, we’ve been eating a lot of potatoes, repeat meats, and
