Thin Crust Pizza (Chicken Pesto Pizza)
From http://recipes.robbiehaf.com/T/272.htm
Makes 1 pizza
.25 oz. pkt. active dry yeast
1/4 tsp. granulated sugar
3/4 cup 110 degree water
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. salt
Top with Pesto, Mozzarella cheese, sliced red pepper, sliced red onion, and cut up grilled chicken. I've also added bacon, which is good.
-Dissolve yeast and sugar in water; allow to rest for 8 minutes.-In a separate bowl, combine flour and salt.-Pour yeast mixture over flour mixture and mix well with a heavy spoon.-Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead for 2 minutes.-Working from the edges to the center, press dough into a 12" circle. We've also found that holding the dough up, off the counter and stretching it works well, too (keep rotating the dough circle as you stretch to keep an even circle forming).-Place dough on a lightly greased pizza pan and stretch dough to edges.-Spread sauce over crust and top with cheese and desired toppings.-Bake in a 500 degree oven for 8-12 minutes, or until edges are golden.
We love this pizza, even Ella eats it! And it is my new dinner to make for friends.

Pizza Bombs
From Andrew and Ashley Wray
Makes 1-2 bombs or pizzas
5 c. flour
1 teas. salt
1/4 teas. pepper
1 T. sugar
1/4 c. oil
2 c. warm water
2 T. yeast
Dissolve yeast in water. Add remaining ingredients. Raise 1 hr. (if desired--this will make two pizzas for sure). Roll out dough. Cut out circles. Spoon sauce on center. Put on cheese, meat, etc. Fold dough over and press edges together. Bake at 400 for about 12-14 minutes until golden brown.
This used to be our one and only pizza that we made, but then we found another (flatbread style) that we use too. This one is still the best for a good old pepperoni & black olive (for the hubby) pizza.

Creamy Wild Rice Chicken Soup
From Erin May
Makes 6-8 cups
Put 6-8 cups water in a medium saucepan over medium high heat.
Add 2-3 chicken boullion cubes.
Cut up and boil any veggies you would like... I put in 2 carrots, 2 stalks of celery, and some diced onion.
Add rice from a box of Long Grain & Wild Rice mix (Rice a Roni, Uncle Ben, Farmhouse, etc).
Meanwhile, make a rous using:
2-3 TBS. butter
1/4 c. flour
Seasoning packet from boxed rice
1/2 can evaporated milk (I would use the whole thing, though) (and any milk will do)
When rice is cooked, add rous and cooked chicken. Salt & Pepper to taste.
*I made this last night, and I used almost a whole can of milk, and it was creamier and better than previous times I have made it. We also don't add chicken, 'cause we are weird like that.
