The Omnivore Pizza 🍕

2 weeks ago I made homemade pizza from scratch. Homemade crust, double sauce, pepperoni, onions, ground venison and ground chuck marinated in blackberry brandy and my spice mix. It was by far the best homemade pizza I've ever had.

Crust ingredients:
4 cups Self-rising flour
1 tsp Bread machine yeast
1 1/3 cup hot water
1/4 cup sugar
Olive oil
Salt

Ingredients:
Pizza sauce
Pepperoni
1/2 medium onion, chopped
1/2 lb Ground venison
1/2 lb Ground chuck
Blackberry Brandy
Worcestershire sauce
Salt
Italian seasoning
Garlic
Mozzarella

Directions:
1. In a medium bowl combine ground venison, ground chuck, salt, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning and blackberry brandy. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours.   
2. Cook meat until brown. Drain fat and set aside to cool down.
3. In a small bowl, combine yeast & hot water for 10 minutes.
4. In a large mixing bowl combine flour, salt, olive oil, & yeast mix. Let dough rise for a hour.
5. Roll out the dough on to a greased pan to 1 inch thickness.
6. Spread pizza sauce evenly, leave a 1 inch edge for crust. 
7. Make 2 rings of pepperoni, starting at the edge of sauce.
8. Add the cooked meat, and chopped onions. Roll the edge of the crust.
9. Complete with cheese, crushed Italian seasoning and bake at 400° F for 35-40 minutes. Enjoy.

Yelds approximately 16 slices.

Venison Chili

I double this recipe for 4 or more people. Some times I use 1 28 oz. of crushed tomatoes instead of tomato sauce. Serve this chili with corn chips instead of eating two bowls.

Potato Squash

This recipe is one of my favorites while growing up. For 2 years I have grown squash and canned to use all year round. I end up with so much squash it should last me for a few years unless there ends up being a food shortage or a fallout of some sort.I usually double this recipe to add meat to the leftovers the next day.

If you want meat, try with shrimp, chicken, beef or venison. The first time I made this for my in-laws, my father-in-law said it needed meat. So the next day with the left overs, I suited shrimp with butter and added to it. Third day I fried chicken in olive oil.I haven't tried with beef or venison yet.
