HauerTo: 3 Ways to Make Amazing At-Home Pizza Without Emptying Your Wallet

Friday is World Pizza Makers Day, so why not ditch delivery and have some fun making pizza at home with the fam? And no, you don’t need to drop a fortune to do it—here are three hacks to keep pizza night cheap, tasty, and packed with family bonding (or bickering, whatever works).

1. Dough So Easy, You’ll Knead More

Why spend big on pre-made dough when you can make your own with just flour, yeast, water, and salt? It costs, like, pennies! Plus, kneading dough is basically a free workout for the kids (bonus: they’ll be tired and less likely to fight over who gets the biggest slice).

1. Leftover Roulette

Let’s talk toppings: instead of buying fancy stuff, raid your fridge like a pro. Leftover chicken? Toss it on. Random veggies on their last leg? Perfect! It’s like a fun little game of "Will This Taste Good on Pizza?" (Spoiler: it usually does). You’ll end up with a creative masterpiece and a cleaner fridge—win-win!

1. Sauce & Cheese Swaps

No need to splurge on pizza sauce. Got a jar of spaghetti sauce? That works. Feeling bold? Try salsa for a little kick. And for cheese, don’t stress—grab the bargain bag of shredded mozzarella or mix it up with whatever you’ve got on hand (yes, even cheddar—pizza is a no-judgment zone).

So, gather the fam, get messy, and enjoy pizza night without burning through your budget. It’s cheap, it’s delicious, and it’s way more fun than watching someone else make your pizza on an app. Happy World Pizza Makers Day!
