Homemade Pizza Dough and Pizza Sauce
This recipe makes three large pans of pizza. When I only need one pan, I make the recipe as always. Then I put the leftover dough into individual dough rounds, wrap it in waxed paper, and put it into a freezer bag. When I'm ready to use it again, I take out what I need and let it thaw at room temperature for two to three hours.
