Homemade pizza is not healthy, we’re having a proper dinner.

[Summerwillbesoshortthisyear]

Dc playing with a neighbour friend, I asked if they wanted to help make homemade pizzas and stay for dinner and to check with the mum.
He came back and said that he wasn’t allowed, my Dc asked ‘Aww, why not?’ and he said that his mum said it wasn’t healthy and that she’d make a proper dinner.

We do this sometimes on Friday/Saturday, Dc enjoy the activity and choosing toppings-passata, mozzarella, mushrooms, peppers, spinach and so on to make funny pizza faces, is this massively unhealthy?!

If my daughter came home and said can they go to a friend's to make pizza, I would ask if I could have some. 😂

try Doughboys too. normal ingredients and delicious.

Cutted-up cheeseburger, chocolate buttons and a dash of Southern Comfort.

I would love to know what the neighbour is having.
Homemade pizza is great 😃

Possibly the mum just wanted to sit in front of the TV in her pyjamas, eat a pizza and drink gin and have an early night and you can't do that if your child is at a friend's and you have to collect them and interact with other mum .

That would be healthy if you added mushrooms and onions.

What about M&S individual pizzas? Under 400 cals 👍

I'm from an immigrant background, it wasn't in our family range of foods/recipes. I was born in the 60's. There's nothing wrong with it, but it doesn't seem to be approved of, on here.

If it’s all homemade what’s so unhealthy

Flour, yeast, smidge of salt = dough
Toppings + cheese
= Pizza

Delicious

Too much money is wasted buying pizzas and that is unhealthy for families.

@pam290358 you could, but nobody does.

Would that life were as simple as it seems to be in your world

@BeNiceWhenItsFinished”cutted” is not a word! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@EmmaJane2025

There is a thread (possibly in Classics) which is about a "cutted up pear".

It's very funny.

Yes, it's in classics called "If my 3yo had access to AIBU"
A very funny thread😁

Yes it is. It is in common usage on Mumsnet, and all new words have to start somewhere.

Okay, maybe it has not entered the exalted realms of the OED yet, but it is most definitely now an actual word.

This discussion is about HOMEMADE - not shop bought.
Big difference.

Nobody?!? I must be imagining my own wholemeal pizza bases I've done in the past then.
There's quite a lot of imaginary wholemeal pizza bases in my memory.

@LittleBitofBread yiu should sell them, given how rare they are!

Well, I don’t think they are that rare, that’s the point
