    Chicken Margherita Pizza

    January 13, 2016 by Erin, The $5 Dinner Mom Leave a Comment

    Chicken Margherita Pizza from 5DollarDinners.com

    Homemade Pizza night is ALWAYS a hit around here! I've got a little secret...I just don't love restaurant doughs. Maybe it's because I make homemade pizzas so often and just prefer my dough recipe (link is below.) Not only can I make it without thinking about it, it's super soft, delicious and makes the perfect size pizza-pie for our family. This Chicken Margherita … [Read more...]

    BBQ Chicken French Bread Pizza

    August 24, 2015 by Erin, The $5 Dinner Mom Leave a Comment

    Pizza. We love pizza just as much as the next family does. And while I love to make my own dough (usually in the bread machine), some days I just don't have my act together or I forget to start the dough in time to be ready to get the pizza in the oven at a reasonable dinner hour. On those frazzled and trying days, I often turn to a "french bread pizza." I keep loaf bread … [Read more...]

    Easy Veggie Tortilla Pizzas

    Easy Veggie Tortilla Pizzas from 5DollarDinners.com

    It's time to get crazy with your next family pizza night with these tortilla 'crusts.' It's almost like a quesadilla crust with 2 tortillas with cheese inside, toasted together and then topped with pizza toppings. These are crazy delicious and since they don't call for a lot of shredded cheese, it's a meal I can easily make for my dairy-free kids using their dairy-free … [Read more...]

    Pesto Ricotta Pizza

    April 2, 2015 by Erin, The $5 Dinner Mom Leave a Comment

    Pesto Ricotta Pizza | 5DollarDinners.com

    Holy flavor load...this pizza has it all! It's got the creamy from the ricotta, and the punch of fresh herb-i-ness from the pesto, and the perfect balance of salt from the Parm and garlic from the...well, the garlic. Seriously, can you taste it yet?!? Make this amazing pizza with a homemade crust (it's definitely cheaper this way!!!) or grab a pre-made crust from the … [Read more...]

    Homemade Freezer Friendly Whole Wheat Pizza Crust

    October 10, 2014 by Erin, The $5 Dinner Mom 8 Comments

    Our family loves pizza. Even the dairy free kids. (They get special cheese.) There is just something about pizza. The crust, the sweeter sauce, the cheese, the flavor explosions from the toppings. Or maybe this Americanized Italian food somehow transports us to a world across the ocean to the boot shaped country...and we dream and long for a vacation or trip there. {Oh … [Read more...]

    Sausage Pizza Kebabs

    June 10, 2014 by Erin, The $5 Dinner Mom Leave a Comment

    Sausage Pizza Kebabs | 5DollarDinners.com

    Alright friends. I'll never look at kebabs the same again. And I'll never make them again without a side of grilled garlic bread. When you do the garlic bread on the grill, you don't dirty another dish. You don't have to turn on the oven. And you can butter it as you slap it on the grill. Little fuss. Little mess. Big. Big flavor. Full. Full tummies! Sausage … [Read more...]

    Pizza Stuffed Spaghetti Squash

    November 13, 2013 by Erin, The $5 Dinner Mom 1 Comment

    Pizza Spaghetti Squash

    I've been seeing a bazillion sales on squash lately...tis the season after all. I regularly see butternut and acorn squash on sale, but see fewer sales for spaghetti squash. So when I saw the at Sprouts a week (or so!) ago for $.39/lb, I snatched up a few. They have a longer "counter life" than most produce, so I knew I'd be able to use them up before they were too … [Read more...]

    Yellow Squash Pizza Boats

    August 13, 2013 by Alea 1 Comment

    It is that time of year. The time of year where every gardener has to dig deep and get creative or else let bushels of squash go to waste. The kids are wise to my squash-hiding tricks, so I had to pull out my secret weapon: Pizza! It may seem a little underhanded, but kids have a hard time resisting pizza and I used that to my advantage when I created these yellow squash … [Read more...]

    I have a little problem. I cannot make a meal that costs more than $5. It’s unnatural, but my pocketbook thanks me.
