After wading through the hundreds of recipe suggestions of how to brew your own home 'enlarge your penis' mix. And how 'hot teen babes' would be willing to suck my special sauce out. I finally narrowed my recipe down to one of my favorite simple recipes.
I was also concerned that my cooking without pants would alarm someone and show that I have no class. So, I decided to add some class to this recipe.
This recipe, however, falls fairly low in the 'safe to do when totally wasted' category, since hot ovens are invovled. You know who you are.

| When I first heard of Pita Pizzas, it was from my parents, and, really, I thought it sounded kind of gross. Then, once I was at their house and they made them for me. They're actually pretty good, and really easy to make. I decided that the best way to add class to such a great recipe is to include wine.
At a minimum, you'll need pitas, spaghetti sauce, cheese and a bottle of Mad Dog 20/20. I like sliced canadian bacon and pepparoni on mine. I also occasionally like onions, green peppers and olives. So, sometimes, I'll make up some of that mixture to keep in the fridge. So, basically, whatever toppings float your boat.
Without further adieu, the recipe:
- Open bottle of Mad Dog 20/20. Pour drink. do not drink
- Turn your oven to around 350. I use a fake oven, so I'm not sure what this temp should really be. I set it to 410, but that's because that's about the same as 350 in my independant 3rd party testing.
- You'll need flat pitas. The only pitas I can get come in a package of about 500 in a bag, so they're always bowl shaped. I've found this is terrible for making mini-pizzas. If you get bowl-shaped pitas, put 'em in the microwave for 30-40 seconds until soft, then put something heavy on top of them. I use my tortilla pan.
I'm really lazy, so i just use a sheet of aluminum foil on the rack. Spray a little non-stick spray on the aluminum foil. Put pita on top of aluminum foil.
- Down the cup of Mad Dog 20/20.
- Put spaghetti sauce on top of pita. As much as floats your boat.
- Drink the rest of the Mad Dog 20/20. I really don't remember that stuff having much kick.
- Put the rest of the toppings on, ususally cheese last.
- Put in oven for around 20-30 minutes. Wait until the cheese is nice and brown. The longer you wait, the more 'real pizza like' these will be.
- After time is up in the oven, let cool for about 10 minutes. It's hard, I know, but otherwise you will burn your mouth.
- A big knife and a cutting board really works best for slicing the pizzas.
- Eat. Of course
The Mad Dog 20/20 can be substituted for other fine beverages, such as Boone Farms (You know. If you're going after that 16 yr old) or even if you're feeling swass, Night Train Express.
Come to think of it. Who the fuck drinks wine with pizza? Drink beer, dammit. In which case, substitute your favorite cheap-assed beer for the wine in the instructions above. And omit the cup. Who the fuck drinks beer from a cup?
