I love how Nick made the dough from scratch but the sauce was from a jar and the cheese was pre-shredded -- this is an entire mood! It's called BALANCE!

The thing with cooking your own meals is that it becomes cheaper if you prepare everything yourself, and as long as you buy economy ingredients (so, for example, shredding a block of cheese rather than buying pre-shredded, making your own pizza sauce, you don't really need 00 flour - regular all-purpose flour would work just as well). For the price of a couple of pizzas ordered in you could get enough ingredients to make many more pizzas, and use for other things as well such as baking bread. You did a great job, and it looked delicious. The look on your face is the realization that cooking at home tastes so much better! Congrats, I hope you do more cooking.

You also have to factor in use of the energy to cook.... either gas or or electric, also your time has value. This includes shopping, prepping and cook time and then there's clean up time and even the minimal expenses of water, dish soap and / or the electricity to run a dishwasher.

That’s right, but with a bag of flour, salt, sugar etc. you can make multiple doughs, not only one. You need to have a base of ingredients, so you can cook with a few add-ons. Otherwise it’s crazy expensive. 😂

Nice job! That looks super yummy! It's not a good idea to stick things into mixer when it's on, you can stop it to add your ingredients and turn it back on. The Kitchen-Aids usually come with a piece that goes around the top of the bowl and it has a section that angles lower where you can add your ingredients and it funnels it into the bowl. I'm surprised it didn't come with that part, but you can buy it if you want to. I personally don't like it, I just add stuff close to the edge. You won't have so many problems when you use the regular paddle.
