Batch-Cooking Green Pizzas for the Freezer

green-pizza-3.jpgShalom!

Our 12 year old son wants to learn how to play guitar. The guitar teacher is a lovely single woman who doesn’t have time to cook for herself. So, we bartered for half of the teaching fee. Every week I bake Cary something wonderful!

This week, it was small whole wheat, spinach, herb and Parmesan pizza crusts. I made 15 (10-inch) pizzas, pre-baked them, let them cool and packaged them for the freezer. 4 went to Cary for her freezer and all she has to do is take the crust from the freezer, top it and bake it in a pre-heated 475 oven until the toppings are done and the crust is tender. Needless to say, Cary was elated.

The batch baking session was done early in the morning while the family was asleep and then I cleaned up the kitchen for the rest of the day. Some of the crusts go into OUR freezer for those hurried, frenzied days and some are for our table tonight. The crusts are small enough that each child can have their own pizza with their own individual toppings and have some left over for lunch tomorrow.
