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

Tortillas

I love me some homemade tortilla's! I mean who does not!?! Making homemade tortilla's does not have to stressful, difficult, overwhelming or scary at all; in fact it can be the total opposite, relaxing, fun, and very exciting for children to help out. Whenever I am having a hard day or a bad day I go to my kitchen and whip together a big batch (double most times) of tortilla's. I either eat them plain just like that, put them in a wrap, use to make homemade hard taco shells, use for taco bowls, or just for enchiladas. Truth be told, I am addicted to these darn tortilla's and honestly could never have enough in my freezer. Now of course they will not be the best shaped, but you know what?! That is how you know they are truly homemade from the heart! Well, crap-ola let's get to the fun stuff, enough serious talk!
You Will Need:
5 Cups Flour
1 tsp Baking Powder
1 tsp Salt
1/2 Cup Butter
1-2 Cups Water

I took my tortilla and placed it in an oven safe bowl, cooked on 350 degrees for 10 minutes or until crispy and edges were a nice brown color! Top with your favorite taco stuff and enjoy! As I said above you can eat these like this, plain tacos, burritos, enchiladas, wraps, plain, hard tacos, and soft tacos; the list is endless!
