Get two giant sheet pans that barely fit in the oven, put both in at the same time rotating halfway through, then do a deep dish pizza in your biggest iron skillet. That should feed your crew with just two bake cycles.

Hello! Mom of 11 here too! We use 2 sheet pans for baking our sourdough pizzas. I will roll it out to the edges. Bake for 5 minutes then add all the toppings and continue to bake until done . Loving your content!!!
For the pizzas....instead of making a bunch of round ones....I use to make one covering the entire sheet pan with the crust and toppings. ..one sheet pan/cookie sheet feeds 3-4 adults
Pizzas...like others have noted, using outdoor grill for pizzas (may have to make smaller depending on what you are used to) was a routine practice of a former neighbor..especially in sultry summers when she did everything she could not to use the oven. Also on YT, there are multiple creative plans for outdoor DIY pizza ovens using various cheaper materials. Y'all have so much space and it may be a great project for the guys! Then, you can move it when y'all move or do something different and more "permanent" when you build! Homeschool project for sure!!
Becky at Acre Homestead did a video about making homemade pasta in bulk (if i remember correctly she made a years worth for her and her husband). Maybe you can schedule yourself time once every other month to make pasta in bulk for your family.
The members mark Naan bread is great for individual pizzas. You get 10 for $5.78. Brush with a little olive oil, add toppings, and bake at 400 for 10-12 minutes.
Buy an ooni pizza oven - maybe 30 seconds per pizza (you cannot leave it though - it burns FAST) It’s propane powered - but it’s like restaurant quality pizza - great investment!
Sarah it is so easy to grow garlic! At the end of October, beginning of November is the perfect time. You can use grocery store garlic cloves, plant 5 inches in the soil, cover with a thick blanket of leaves and then garden plastic. Uncover in Spring and it is usually ready by July.
Best to use organic garlic cloves from grocery store as the regular. May have been sprayed to keep them from sprouting etc.. but @kimmartin160 is correct.
Once you get a garden going and make your own salsa, pasta sauce, barbecue, and ketchup with all the tomatoes, onions, garlic, and basil you’ve grown YOUR BUDGET WILL GO DOWN . Not to mention your potatoes and okra and peppers and kale and spinach and lettuce and strawberries and eggplant and squash and…… 😂😂😂
We make miniature pizzas using English muffins and they turn out wonderful we put our pizza or spaghetti sauce right on top add pepperoni cheese and all the toppings we bake in the oven and they turned out wonderful so if you use store-bought ones you cut them in half open them up you get two pizzas out of one English muffin!
"I'm not gonna talk about bird feed" *continues to talk about bird feed* 😂😂😂😂 love it. You're never annoying. I love hearing you talk. It's like I'm listening to a friend 😊
I freeze my pasta dough so i can pull it out and put it through the pasta machine as i want fresh pasta. I have 3 boys and they love home made pasta we dont buy store bought anymore. I use my bread machine on pasta setting and let the machine do all the work.
For winter a masonry oven is great, but an indoor one during the summer, no thank you :D With such an oven you can do a bunch of pizzas and move onto bred and pies etc.
Just a thought. You may want to invest in an “Ooni” pizza oven. It’s for outdoors. My son has 2 of them. You already make the dough. And you can make pizza sauce. Then just pick toppings. Each pizza takes less than 90 seconds to cook. My son has made over 40 pizzas for an event and it took such a minimum amount of time. I’d be happy to connect you with him to talk thru the pros and cons! He’d love to share his experience! 💕
Azure is local to me. About 30 miles away. I live in orchard country. So those peaches are local to me also. Azure is located centered between wheat and grain land and fruit orchards. Those peaches are delicious as well as the other fruits tmand vegetables they offer. Happy eating! Love your content. We raised 5 kids and now have 11 grandbabies. ❤❤
We've had great success in grilling the pizza. Just make individual size pizzas and throw the crust on the grill to parbake. Add toppings and put onto the grill, I would think the griddle/ Blackstone could work too, and bake till melty.
I work at a camp and i make a lot of pizza. The game changer for me was to buy a gas pizza oven. (We have the Ooni Brand) it takes 1 min per pizza to cook.
Hi Sarah! 😁 We're only a family of 9 and we're running our dishwasher 3 times a day! Do you have a video where you explain your routine that keeps you all down to just one load a day? I would LOVE to lessen those loads, but we do a lot of "from scratch" cooking like you all do. Is the secret disposable plates or simply more hand-washing or something that I'm not even considering? Thanks a bunch and love, love, love your channel! 🥰💕🥰💕
Hello Sarah, I can relate to your pizza baking dilemma. What I do, so I can bake more at one time, is I use the large cookie sheets and make large square pizzas, rather than the traditional round ones. It is a little bit challenging to make your crust that large, but once you get one baking, it gives you time to work on the second one. I was feeding 7 to 8 people and it took two pans.
When my kids were teens bagel pizzas were the thing. Split bagels, pizza/pasta sauce cheese of choice, fav toppings- pepperoni, bacon, peppers, onion……. Top them all up on a baking tray and pop in the oven until toasty and melty. Might be a good alternative to your pizza night problem. I think you could even cook them on the grill with the hood closed. ❤
I bought some of the egg mcmuffins I forget what they are called and cut them in half and let my grandson cook us pizzas and it was really good and he felt like a chef 😂
I make sprouted flour pizza crusts ahead of time and bake until barely done… Any size- my family loves it when I do personal sized ones and they can put on their favorite toppings… then freeze them until ready to use. Take out of freezer a few hours ahead of time, then load with favorite toppings and bake at 400* for 7-8 min until everything is hot & cheese is melted. We love to do them on our pellet grill that way too! Just put the pizza crusts straight on rack, put on toppings & use a large turner to take off when done!
I get garlic like you just shared but not as much. I like what you do with freezing them. I definitely will do that. Thanks I love your vlog, been watching since Seth was a baby.
Your blackstone grill is perfect for pizzas. Cook one side, flip, put toppings on, lid down for a few minutes, and enjoy! You should be able to get at least 2 or 3 at a time that way.
Just a thought, you might want to make a foccaccia type bread. Spread out your regular bread dough in a sheet pan let rise a bit and cook. For pizzas, split and top with goodies and bake. Saves the extra steps needed for bagels.
Sara our outdoor Ooni koda 16 pizza oven was probably the best investment we ever made. No joke it cooks pizzas in 90 seconds and we use it so very often. Look into that brand for sure it will make your life a lot easier then cooking them in the oven.
Hi Sarah! When all the kids come for a pizza night we fire up hubs pellet grill! We can do 2 at a time easily. I don't do a the sourdough crust like you do, I just do a yeasted recipe and do it in a cast iron skillet (I have several) or I pull out the cast iron pizza pan. Just preheat the pan before you put the crust on it for about 2 or 3 minutes, do your toppings, close the lid for 8-10 min and check to see how much longer you wanna go. We set the temp on ours to 500. Love the video and I hope you have a blessed day!!!
We use a larger pizza stone in the oven or on the grill, but it still takes more time than I’d like. On nights I need it to be done faster, we make the large sheet pans into pizzas. It feeds a lot of people.
We love pizza in my house. We do pizza many different ways. A couple are- pull apart pizza. You need a bag of frozen rolls. Thaw them out enough that you can cut them into fourths. Put them in a 10 by 13 inch pan. Put your favorite sauce and toppings. Cook in a 350 oven for about 20 minutes. Until the rolls are done. Another way is with Greek Pita flat breads. Pit on your favorite toppings and sauce. Cook for 10-12 minutes on 400.
We have an outdoor pizza oven and love it. BUT it may or may not be a necessity. If you bake the pizzas on a pizza stone (not a metal pan) you could put it in your oven and put the boiler on. Let the broiler heat the stone up then slide the pizza on it. And if you don't want to heat up your kitchen with the broiler, you can also use the stone on your grill. All of these options make fantastic pizza!!
How about two large cookie sheet pans with sides full of pizza dough and the filling on? Use both racks in the oven. Switch pans top to bottom if needed.
We love our Ooni pizza oven! It was a pricey purchase but it saves time as it cooks each pizza in about 1 minute. We have pizza every Friday night too ☺️
The doctor put my son on a special diet so as a household we are all on this diet. This had raised my grocery bill through the roof! No bread,pasta,rice,potatoes,or sugar. We raise our own animals for meat and grew a big garden but still need to buy fruit and vegetables. My cart was full of fruit,vegetables,and dairy and it was over $100. I don’t know how people are affording groceries.
@@Hannah_MK I just found out I’m border line diabetic so nothing with sugar. No white bread, rice, potatoes, French fries, grapes, nothing. I can have brown rice, 23 grain bread, veggies & salads. I planted a huge garden with tomatoes, yellow squash, cucumbers, peppers, egg plant, cherry & grape tomatoes, I plant potatoes every year even though they’re loaded with sugar so I have only a few maybe once a week, they’re tiny red and golden potatoes. I also grow garlic, green onions, carrots, watermelon, pumpkin & rhubarb. I also buy Lean Cuisine. I hate to think what groceries are gonna cost when the garden is done. The only good thing that came out of this new diet is I lost 163 lbs over the summer. I guess I’ve reached what they call a plateau because I’m not losing anymore weight. I feel really good and have gone from a size 22 to a 12. My daughter came home from CO and was shocked. I have 17 kids and we will be together at Thanksgiving. My daughter is the only one who knows of my weight loss. We went shopping and she bought me a whole new wardrobe. Clothes are expensive too!!! Everything is about money. You can afford to eat junk but can’t afford to eat healthy. I don’t even drive anymore, cars and insurance is very expensive too. I live in NJ and taxes are 2nd highest in the nation. Thank God I have no vices but 2 cats. LOL 😊 Godspeed 🕊️
It sounds like your household eats a low or no carb diet. I'm a widow and my son (33) lives in an attached apartment. We mostly share the grocery budget for economy. We eat low carb, usually no carb, no pasta, regular bread, rice or potatoes. We live in the Pacific NW where prices are traditionally higher than anywhere else, except Hawaii and Alaska. We don't have any Amish or discount grocery stores. When prices started going up, we kept shopping as we had, and our budget exploded. .... that wasn't going to work so we quickly changed how we shop, what we buy, and, of course, what we eat, but still no carb, sometimes low carb. It takes a bit more time but our grocery budget is back to a very manageable amount, - it's lower than the USDA "thrifty plan" ... nutritious vegetables (fresh and frozen) and some fruit, proteins, other foods and new recipes. If we want bread I bake, using "keto" recipes. Thanksgiving this year is with 2 no carb, 1 vegetarian, 1 no to low sodium and 1 who can eat anything ... two are bringing a dish. I've been working on the menu, off and on, for a few weeks. It's finally in budget and everyone will eat and enjoy!
It is visable that you are feeling well Bravo! Love and blessings My dad loved the kitchen and he embraced pasta making. it was not complicated, fun to me and very superior to store bought. Now cost? I have no idea never did it in my own home.
Amy Maryon uses an outdoor pizza oven and it seems like it cooks their pizza's in just a few minutes... definitely might be worth it! Philips Automatic Pasta & Noodle Maker with Interchangeable Pasta Shaping Discs is a machine my friend has and uses to feed her family of 7 (plus a few extras usually) she loves it and says it's easy to clean and doesn't take a long time to make right there on the spot! Hope this helps a little! Love your videos even though I don't have a family I take care of (yet hopefully)
Love love loveee loveeee loveeeeeeee your grocery shopping hauls. I started watching from 2019. Such a cute large family. The most positive person Sara. God bless you and your family.🎉
PIZZA HACK- parchment paper! Use a flat cookie sheet, place a piece of parchment paper on top and then your pizza and toppings. When ready to go into the oven cut the parchment a little around your pizza so it’s not sticking out too much so the parchment won’t burn. Slide the parchment pizza right into the oven. Makes the crust just as good as a pizza stone. I know there is a video out there on it somewhere. It was a lady testing different ways.
I’m slowly being able to do once a month shopping. It’s hard when I don’t have the freezer storage and my kids loooooooove their fruit. We are looking into getting an upright freezer so I can leave our deep freezers for all my other meats and veg, milk, bread, ice creams and ice blocks. An upright will help with my prep freezer meals. I’m saving to buy a brand new one cause in my area a second hand one people are selling for basically a brand new ones price. We will get there. Just slowly but surely. Thank you for another great video showing you don’t always stay in budget either. Upping the budget would be a good idea just until you’re on top and in front of everything food storage wise. Also I think getting an automatic pasta machine would be great BUT maybe see if you can borrow your dads one and see how much you can get pump out to help feed the tribe of many household. 🤷♀️ try before you buy type thing. Ask your dad for tips and tricks about it also. He’s a great cook and I’m sure he has mastered the pasta machine and can help you out. 🤷♀️ Thank you again. Enjoy your night. It’s 7:07am here in South Australia. 💕
@@debbywickman1103 haha, yeah that’s true. They live a fair distance away then? Maybe they can ask a neighbour or someone from the church if they have one and get opinions on them and they can research from that. I’m not sure the price for one in USD cause I’m an Aussie so our prices are way more expensive for the ones I have seen. Just a suggestion, cause they already have one. ☺️ Hopefully we will be updated on what they have chosen to do. 😀
We shop weekly for our family of 13 because we buy a lot of produce and raw milk. We decided to buy a cow this year as well. If we had chickens, that would take almost $400 off our budget, and raw milk is worth it! We pay $14 a gallon. Do you factor in the whole cow over the months into your budget? Love your shopping grocery haul videos! Sending love from Wisconsin!❤️
5:40 I use my grill with a pizza stone on it. It takes 7 to 10 minutes per pizza. If you have a big enough grill, you can do two pizzas at once. It takes some tweaking to figure out how to cook it on your specific grill, but it is fast. We always have a slow Friday night pizza night because we all wait for the next pizza to come out. We usually only cook four pizzas one at a time though.
I purchased a pasta machine attachment for my kitchen aid. If I still had everyone at home, I would make up big batches of the dough ahead of time and freeze it and just take it out the night before to thaw in the frig or counter. The most time consuming is making up the dough.
My daughter in law was gifted a wood burning pizza oven for Christmas by me for doing pizzas in along with other foods when the power goes out during a winter storms. She loves it.
Spring mix with strawberries, blueberries, feta cheese, grilled chicken strips, croutons, with balsamic vinaigrette is a good salad to make. With a soup is a great easy meal.
Search garlic confit (basically boiling garlic cloves in olive oil). I always add a little salt and red pepper flakes. Keep it in your fridge in a jar and use it on/in anything, especially just spread on your homemade bread!
Sarah, I live in Georgia, The Peach State, and spent over half of my teaching career teaching in Peach County. WE had lots of family owned Peach Orchard that furnished Walmarts. Peaches are so good grilled on an outside grill...the best peaches come after The 4th of July....great in pancakes, cobblers, on cereal....BTW, we have the only Peach County in the whole country...a Jeopardy trivia question years ago....🙂
I use sourdough crust and put parchment out that is the size of my big cookie sheet (no edge to it). If you do 2 of these, you can make 2 huge pizzas at the same time. Preheat your oven to 450 WITH the pans in it. Roll your pizza out on the parchment and make it, slide it onto the hot pan, bake for 15 minutes. The hot pan cooks the bottom well and the cheese melts great. We like thick softer crust but you could easily make it thin and crispy. I'd love to hear how your fresh ground flour sourdough turns out!
Buy a couple more pizza stones and use your outside gas or electric grill. If you don’t want to buy more stones, you can make them directly on the grill rack but there’s a bit of hands on compared to the stone.
Yes worth the money for the outdoor pizza oven! They take 90 seconds to cook. There is a learning curve and you need to use 00 pizza flour so you may have to play with your dough recipe for a while.
We love your family and love your videos, but I've been waiting for Nebraska to play Michigan so I can say "GO BLUE!" to Solo 😁. We are huge Big Ten football/University of Michigan fans in our house, and I enjoy when I hear Solo talk about and represent Nebraska. Just wanted to give a shout out to our fellow Big Ten fans! ❤️
For the pizza....I have seen large reversible cast iron rectangular griddles...or Lodge makes a rectangular pan too...that you could do the crust to get it in the large rectangular shape...and then use the large rectangular pizza stones for in the oven. I know storage space is a factor right now, but it would probably save time to try to do two bigger rectangular pizzas instead of so many small round ones. I have a great pampered chef rectangular cookie sheet (not metal but stone like) that works great as a rectangular pizza stone. Might need two pizza paddles to get it on and off the pizza stone. Would be an investment, but given the size of your family and that you are now doing the sourdough crust...it is something to look into to save you time.
I'm surprised there aren't fruit trees on your property. You need to plant your own little orchard: apples, pears, plums, figs...blueberry bushes too...yum.
My kids loved english muffin pizzas as kids. Now that they are grown with kids of their own we try to do a family (20) pizza night once a month. I use my large rimmed cookie sheets. One cheese only, a pepperoni and cheese, and a favorite broccoli, ricotta and mozzarella. I have 3 oven racks and put the stove on convection. I make 4 or 5 and have leftover for them to take home.
We used to half English muffins, toast them and then top them with pizza toppings. Then, we put them back under the oven broiler, until the cheese was melted.
When you check the feed store for the chicken feed, look at the pet food….. we use Fromm food for our dog and cats…. Way better ingredients and about the same price..
Thanks for sharing! Love seeing how other large families function. We are a family of 9 and I still shop weekly. I try to do Walmart pick up to stay out of the stores and/or I shop the local Amish discount stores.
We had a Mennonite run discount store in our old town. We called it "the bent and dent store" They had an Amish deli and my word, it was delicious! I miss that store so so much!
I have a Camp Chef pizza oven. I’ve had it at least a year now. It’s amazing. I’ve used it for pizza, cornbread, baked potatoes and wedged potatoes. It works just like my gas oven in the house. It is an open oven, but I have zero complaints. I have a 16 inch Camp Chef cooking system with three burners, so I got the two burner oven and I’m able to use the other burner for a skillet or pot. If the SHTF I can bake anything using propane outdoors. I also make homemade pizza every Friday night. I am making a big batch of yeasty pizza dough that uses about 5 cups of flour total. I divide this in half to fill two sheet pans that measure about (almost 18”X13”) I say almost 18 because I don’t know how to figure the lines between the inches. I’ve got Nordic Ware rimmed sheet pans. This makes lots of pizza. It may be a solution for your family. We always have leftovers that we eat all week. I have six people I’m feeding but only one is a male and that’s hubby. Hahaha. That size pan works in my Camp Chef pizza oven. I just used it last night. Hope this is helpful.
I use a very dark and heavy cookie sheet to make large pizzas instead of small round pizzas on the stone. Bake in the lowest oven rack and it comes out perfectly crispy!
We are a family of 7. My boys are teens and early 20’s , so all BIG eaters! When we make pizza I use a sheet pan and make really big pans at a time. We have double ovens so I can cook 2 at once or one goes in and while cooling the next is cooking. That helps to feed more at a time than that small round pizza does!
Get two giant sheet pans that barely fit in the oven, put both in at the same time rotating halfway through, then do a deep dish pizza in your biggest iron skillet. That should feed your crew with just two bake cycles.
Totally agree. Square pizza's in sheet pan is what I do.

We set the temp on ours to 500.
Love the video and I hope you have a blessed day!!!
We use a larger pizza stone in the oven or on the grill, but it still takes more time than I’d like. On nights I need it to be done faster, we make the large sheet pans into pizzas. It feeds a lot of people.
We love pizza in my house. We do pizza many different ways. A couple are- pull apart pizza. You need a bag of frozen rolls. Thaw them out enough that you can cut them into fourths. Put them in a 10 by 13 inch pan. Put your favorite sauce and toppings. Cook in a 350 oven for about 20 minutes. Until the rolls are done. Another way is with Greek Pita flat breads. Pit on your favorite toppings and sauce. Cook for 10-12 minutes on 400.
We put a pizza stone on the grill and set to 500. A pizza, rolled out on parchment takes just a couple minutes
We have an outdoor pizza oven and love it. BUT it may or may not be a necessity. If you bake the pizzas on a pizza stone (not a metal pan) you could put it in your oven and put the boiler on. Let the broiler heat the stone up then slide the pizza on it. And if you don't want to heat up your kitchen with the broiler, you can also use the stone on your grill. All of these options make fantastic pizza!!
How about two large cookie sheet pans with sides full of pizza dough and the filling on? Use both racks in the oven. Switch pans top to bottom if needed.
We love our Ooni pizza oven! It was a pricey purchase but it saves time as it cooks each pizza in about 1 minute. We have pizza every Friday night too ☺️
Flat top grill. Pizza dough only. Cook / brown. Flip and add sauce /toppings. If you have a lid over grill or even a pot lid, cheese melts faster.
🍕 Make your pizzas rectangular and fill up those trays! 2 pizza worth in one tray.
I would wait to buy the pasta maker until you move into the new house to save the storage headache.
The doctor put my son on a special diet so as a household we are all on this diet. This had raised my grocery bill through the roof! No bread,pasta,rice,potatoes,or sugar. We raise our own animals for meat and grew a big garden but still need to buy fruit and vegetables. My cart was full of fruit,vegetables,and dairy and it was over $100. I don’t know how people are affording groceries.
I understand! We have decided to eat healthier and more produce, and it hurts to pay so much money for veggies that don’t even fill bellies for long!

I just found out I’m border line diabetic so nothing with sugar. No white bread, rice, potatoes, French fries, grapes, nothing. I can have brown rice, 23 grain bread, veggies & salads. I planted a huge garden with tomatoes, yellow squash, cucumbers, peppers, egg plant, cherry & grape tomatoes, I plant potatoes every year even though they’re loaded with sugar so I have only a few maybe once a week, they’re tiny red and golden potatoes. I also grow garlic, green onions, carrots, watermelon, pumpkin & rhubarb. I also buy Lean Cuisine. I hate to think what groceries are gonna cost when the garden is done. The only good thing that came out of this new diet is I lost 163 lbs over the summer. I guess I’ve reached what they call a plateau because I’m not losing anymore weight. I feel really good and have gone from a size 22 to a 12. My daughter came home from CO and was shocked. I have 17 kids and we will be together at Thanksgiving. My daughter is the only one who knows of my weight loss. We went shopping and she bought me a whole new wardrobe. Clothes are expensive too!!! Everything is about money. You can afford to eat junk but can’t afford to eat healthy. I don’t even drive anymore, cars and insurance is very expensive too. I live in NJ and taxes are 2nd highest in the nation. Thank God I have no vices but 2 cats. LOL 😊 Godspeed 🕊️
It sounds like your household eats a low or no carb diet. I'm a widow and my son (33) lives in an attached apartment. We mostly share the grocery budget for economy. We eat low carb, usually no carb, no pasta, regular bread, rice or potatoes. We live in the Pacific NW where prices are traditionally higher than anywhere else, except Hawaii and Alaska. We don't have any Amish or discount grocery stores.
When prices started going up, we kept shopping as we had, and our budget exploded. .... that wasn't going to work so we quickly changed how we shop, what we buy, and, of course, what we eat, but still no carb, sometimes low carb. It takes a bit more time but our grocery budget is back to a very manageable amount, - it's lower than the USDA "thrifty plan" ... nutritious vegetables (fresh and frozen) and some fruit, proteins, other foods and new recipes. If we want bread I bake, using "keto" recipes.
Thanksgiving this year is with 2 no carb, 1 vegetarian, 1 no to low sodium and 1 who can eat anything ... two are bringing a dish. I've been working on the menu, off and on, for a few weeks. It's finally in budget and everyone will eat and enjoy!
You can make lemons or lime by putting into a Mason jar with water & store in refrigerator
So glad the food trays work for you. I use for feeding my kitties!
It is visable that you are feeling well Bravo! Love and blessings My dad loved the kitchen and he embraced pasta making. it was not complicated, fun to me and very superior to store bought. Now cost? I have no idea never did it in my own home.
Take all the time you need we will be here when you are here ❤ you are in my prayers every evening 🙏❤️...
plant some trees apple plumb peach nectarines what ever will grow n berries will grow great there
I grill homemade pizza in my regular gas Weber grill. Takes literally under 10 mins. I do put it on a pizza stone. Delicious!
Amy Maryon uses an outdoor pizza oven and it seems like it cooks their pizza's in just a few minutes... definitely might be worth it! Philips Automatic Pasta & Noodle Maker with Interchangeable Pasta Shaping Discs is a machine my friend has and uses to feed her family of 7 (plus a few extras usually) she loves it and says it's easy to clean and doesn't take a long time to make right there on the spot! Hope this helps a little! Love your videos even though I don't have a family I take care of (yet hopefully)
Love love loveee loveeee loveeeeeeee your grocery shopping hauls. I started watching from 2019. Such a cute large family. The most positive person Sara. God bless you and your family.🎉
PIZZA HACK- parchment paper! Use a flat cookie sheet, place a piece of parchment paper on top and then your pizza and toppings. When ready to go into the oven cut the parchment a little around your pizza so it’s not sticking out too much so the parchment won’t burn. Slide the parchment pizza right into the oven. Makes the crust just as good as a pizza stone. I know there is a video out there on it somewhere. It was a lady testing different ways.
I’m slowly being able to do once a month shopping. It’s hard when I don’t have the freezer storage and my kids loooooooove their fruit. We are looking into getting an upright freezer so I can leave our deep freezers for all my other meats and veg, milk, bread, ice creams and ice blocks. An upright will help with my prep freezer meals. I’m saving to buy a brand new one cause in my area a second hand one people are selling for basically a brand new ones price. We will get there. Just slowly but surely.
Thank you for another great video showing you don’t always stay in budget either. Upping the budget would be a good idea just until you’re on top and in front of everything food storage wise. Also I think getting an automatic pasta machine would be great BUT maybe see if you can borrow your dads one and see how much you can get pump out to help feed the tribe of many household. 🤷♀️ try before you buy type thing. Ask your dad for tips and tricks about it also. He’s a great cook and I’m sure he has mastered the pasta machine and can help you out. 🤷♀️
Thank you again.
Enjoy your night. It’s 7:07am here in South Australia. 💕
Only thing about borrowing the pasta machine is her parents live in Florida
@@debbywickman1103 haha, yeah that’s true. They live a fair distance away then? Maybe they can ask a neighbour or someone from the church if they have one and get opinions on them and they can research from that. I’m not sure the price for one in USD cause I’m an Aussie so our prices are way more expensive for the ones I have seen. Just a suggestion, cause they already have one. ☺️
Hopefully we will be updated on what they have chosen to do. 😀
We shop weekly for our family of 13 because we buy a lot of produce and raw milk. We decided to buy a cow this year as well. If we had chickens, that would take almost $400 off our budget, and raw milk is worth it! We pay $14 a gallon. Do you factor in the whole cow over the months into your budget? Love your shopping grocery haul videos! Sending love from Wisconsin!❤️
❤ 🌹 Have a great weekend!

I use my grill with a pizza stone on it. It takes 7 to 10 minutes per pizza. If you have a big enough grill, you can do two pizzas at once. It takes some tweaking to figure out how to cook it on your specific grill, but it is fast. We always have a slow Friday night pizza night because we all wait for the next pizza to come out. We usually only cook four pizzas one at a time though.
I think your awesome, an awesome person and mom.
I purchased a pasta machine attachment for my kitchen aid. If I still had everyone at home, I would make up big batches of the dough ahead of time and freeze it and just take it out the night before to thaw in the frig or counter. The most time consuming is making up the dough.
My daughter in law was gifted a wood burning pizza oven for Christmas by me for doing pizzas in along with other foods when the power goes out during a winter storms. She loves it.
Spring mix with strawberries, blueberries, feta cheese, grilled chicken strips, croutons, with balsamic vinaigrette is a good salad to make. With a soup is a great easy meal.
Search garlic confit (basically boiling garlic cloves in olive oil). I always add a little salt and red pepper flakes. Keep it in your fridge in a jar and use it on/in anything, especially just spread on your homemade bread!
Sarah, I live in Georgia, The Peach State, and spent over half of my teaching career teaching in Peach County. WE had lots of family owned Peach Orchard that furnished Walmarts. Peaches are so good grilled on an outside grill...the best peaches come after The 4th of July....great in pancakes, cobblers, on cereal....BTW, we have the only Peach County in the whole country...a Jeopardy trivia question years ago....🙂
I use sourdough crust and put parchment out that is the size of my big cookie sheet (no edge to it). If you do 2 of these, you can make 2 huge pizzas at the same time. Preheat your oven to 450 WITH the pans in it. Roll your pizza out on the parchment and make it, slide it onto the hot pan, bake for 15 minutes. The hot pan cooks the bottom well and the cheese melts great. We like thick softer crust but you could easily make it thin and crispy.
I'd love to hear how your fresh ground flour sourdough turns out!
Buy a couple more pizza stones and use your outside gas or electric grill. If you don’t want to buy more stones, you can make them directly on the grill rack but there’s a bit of hands on compared to the stone.
Those green fuzzy things are called gooseberries in uk
You can make pasta in large amounts. and dry it and put in storage just a thought!
Yes worth the money for the outdoor pizza oven! They take 90 seconds to cook. There is a learning curve and you need to use 00 pizza flour so you may have to play with your dough recipe for a while.
We love your family and love your videos, but I've been waiting for Nebraska to play Michigan so I can say "GO BLUE!" to Solo 😁. We are huge Big Ten football/University of Michigan fans in our house, and I enjoy when I hear Solo talk about and represent Nebraska. Just wanted to give a shout out to our fellow Big Ten fans! ❤️
BLUE is kicking my HUSKERS right now. It is not pretty! 🏈
@@rosemarydoran9907 Good game! You played til the end and you got those points on the board. Good job ❤️
For the pizza....I have seen large reversible cast iron rectangular griddles...or Lodge makes a rectangular pan too...that you could do the crust to get it in the large rectangular shape...and then use the large rectangular pizza stones for in the oven. I know storage space is a factor right now, but it would probably save time to try to do two bigger rectangular pizzas instead of so many small round ones. I have a great pampered chef rectangular cookie sheet (not metal but stone like) that works great as a rectangular pizza stone. Might need two pizza paddles to get it on and off the pizza stone. Would be an investment, but given the size of your family and that you are now doing the sourdough crust...it is something to look into to save you time.
I'm surprised there aren't fruit trees on your property. You need to plant your own little orchard: apples, pears, plums, figs...blueberry bushes too...yum.
My kids loved english muffin pizzas as kids. Now that they are grown with kids of their own we try to do a family (20) pizza night once a month. I use my large rimmed cookie sheets. One cheese only, a pepperoni and cheese, and a favorite broccoli, ricotta and mozzarella. I have 3 oven racks and put the stove on convection. I make 4 or 5 and have leftover for them to take home.
We used to half English muffins, toast them and then top them with pizza toppings. Then, we put them back under the oven broiler, until the cheese was melted.
When you check the feed store for the chicken feed, look at the pet food….. we use Fromm food for our dog and cats…. Way better ingredients and about the same price..
Tortilla pizzas work well too. As do oven toasted hotdog buns topped with pizza stuff and baked until bubbly.
Mom used make every week for five kids she used to make sheet pans you know cookie sheets you can fit a lot of pans at once good luck!
Thanks for sharing! Love seeing how other large families function. We are a family of 9 and I still shop weekly. I try to do Walmart pick up to stay out of the stores and/or I shop the local Amish discount stores.
We had a Mennonite run discount store in our old town. We called it "the bent and dent store" They had an Amish deli and my word, it was delicious! I miss that store so so much!
I have a Camp Chef pizza oven. I’ve had it at least a year now. It’s amazing. I’ve used it for pizza, cornbread, baked potatoes and wedged potatoes. It works just like my gas oven in the house. It is an open oven, but I have zero complaints. I have a 16 inch Camp Chef cooking system with three burners, so I got the two burner oven and I’m able to use the other burner for a skillet or pot. If the SHTF I can bake anything using propane outdoors. I also make homemade pizza every Friday night. I am making a big batch of yeasty pizza dough that uses about 5 cups of flour total. I divide this in half to fill two sheet pans that measure about (almost 18”X13”) I say almost 18 because I don’t know how to figure the lines between the inches. I’ve got Nordic Ware rimmed sheet pans. This makes lots of pizza. It may be a solution for your family. We always have leftovers that we eat all week. I have six people I’m feeding but only one is a male and that’s hubby. Hahaha. That size pan works in my Camp Chef pizza oven. I just used it last night. Hope this is helpful.
Love that dishwasher detergent!
Hello, enjoyed the grocery haul and hanging out with you all today. Thanks for sharing.❤😊🙏🏻
Ms. Ruby
I use a very dark and heavy cookie sheet to make large pizzas instead of small round pizzas on the stone. Bake in the lowest oven rack and it comes out perfectly crispy!
We are a family of 7. My boys are teens and early 20’s , so all BIG eaters! When we make pizza I use a sheet pan and make really big pans at a time. We have double ovens so I can cook 2 at once or one goes in and while cooling the next is cooking. That helps to feed more at a time than that small round pizza does!
Try Hy-vee for the avocadoes and apples. The avocadoes you can freeze to eat for later.
We use our traeger, for pizza
Purchase extra oven racks!
You could do at least 4 ata a time!
Have not found you for a while,I always love your videos!!
It is so easy to plant an apple tree, especially if you buy a small one and dont grow from seed
