Focaccia Pizza

Focaccia is soooo fun to make esp with kids. I love getting my kids involved in cooking. The younger you get them cooking, the more love they have for it and want to do it. I started my son off at 4 years old.. today he LOVES to cook. I did not do the same with my daughter and she is really not into cooking. So, I decided any children we have going forward, their little butts will be cooking. Anytime my nieces or nephews are over, we cook together (bread, pizza, biscuits, whatever).  You Will Need: 4 Cups Bread Flour (King Arthur) 2 tsp Salt 1 tsp Sugar (honey or agava)  1.5 tsp Yeast 1 tbsp Oil (olive or avocado) 1 3/4 Cups Warm Water  Toppings: Rao Pizza Sauce Sausage Links, cooked and cut Applegate Pepperoni Green Bell Pepper Mushrooms Olives Onions, Sautéed  Pizza-part bake at 445 degrees 10-12 minutes

Taco Bell Copycat Chalupa's

Growing up I remember LOVING Chalupa's from taco bell, it was my go to with a nacho bell grande. I have not had either of those in probably 15 years! That seems insane to me. I wanted to give my kids a chance to try something different for taco Tuesday and I recalled how much I LOVED these! Homemade to me, is that way to go. Now, next time we will roll these out a LOT more since they were pretty tiny. Tiny but amazing! 
You Will Need:
3 Cups Flour
2 tbsp Baking Powder
1 tsp Salt
2 tbsp Butter, melted
1 1/4 Cup Milk
Oil, for frying (I used avocado oil)
Toppings:
Lettuce
Pinto Beans
Tomatoes
Olives
Sour Cream
Nacho Cheese
Taco Beef 
Shredded Cheese
