Papa Murphy's...

So Brian and I have this great, inexpensive, fun way of getting our pizza and I wanted to share it with you. With me working, I am always looking for something quick...but we can't afford (our budget nor our waste line) to eat out all the time. Let alone, after watching Food INC (a post to come),I am struggling with eating certain things.

Well Papa Murphy's sells crust. You don't have to buy all their toppings you can just buy the crust, already rolled out onto their paper trays. You can choose from either a Regular or Family size, and then you can pick regular or thin crust. (On my south beach plan, we do tend to get the thin, and while it's not wheat, I feel better about it since it is so little bread).

My grand total tonight was $2.17. When you add in the toppings, depending on what you like, you can probably add a few bucks, but I guarantee it will be cheaper and better than the "5$ pizzas". What I love about this is that I can make it the way we enjoy it and we love making it together. This is a great idea when you're bringing someone a "home cooked"  meal, having friends over etc. We love having friends bring their favorite toppings and we all just share pizzas.

Try it out, I think you will LOVE it! If you have kids/birthday parties...This is the way to go:) I feel a party theme coming on!
