CLASSIC PIZZA DOUGH (MAGIC BULLET EXPRESS TRIO)

Classic Pizza Dough (Magic Bullet Express Trio) image

This is a Magic Bullet Express Trio recipe from their website. They don't always give information like how much it makes/servings, cook times, etc. so I apologize if my guessing is off. I'm posting because of the quantity of Magic Bullet requests. I don't have this machine but if you need an explanation of the parts and usage, go their website: www.bulletexpress.com. Recipe doesn't give the prep time (guessing at 5 minutes, plus knead time-5 minutes, rising time-60 to 90 minutes.)

Time 1h55m

Yield 1 12" pizza dough

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon melted butter
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon granulated sugar

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees (unless it's for use at a later time.).
Place your Meal Mixer onto the Base and insert the Flat Blade.
Add ingredients in the order they appear to the Meal Mixer and Pulse the Bullet Express about 10 to 15 times until the ingredients are mixed together and the dough looks slightly formed and thickened (it pulls away from the bottom and forms towards the center.) If the dough is not forming, check to be sure you followed the steps correctly and start over from the beginning again.
Carefully remove the dough, keeping an eye on the blade (its sharp!) and place it on the flour sprinkled surface.
Knead for 4-5 minutes then shape into a ball. Lightly cover your fingertips with flour if the mixture is a little sticky.
Place the ball of dough into a large oiled bowl and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Let the dough rise for about 1 to 1-1/2 hours.
Roll the dough out by hand onto a 12-inch pizza pan.
Add your favorite sauce and toppings and bake for about 15 minutes. (times vary per oven, so keep your eye on it!).

CHOPPED SALAD

Chopped Salad image

A good chopped salad is a buoyant mix of different textures (creamy, crisp, crunchy, juicy), a range of colors, and sweet, salty and tangy flavors. This one has it all, in just the right proportions. You can gather all the ingredients in advance, including cooking the bacon and the eggs. But don't toss everything together until just before serving - and, preferably, do so at the table for maximum impact.

Time 20m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 lemon
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 romaine hearts (about 1 pound), trimmed and torn into bite-size pieces
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
3/4 cup (about 6 ounces) chopped cooked bacon
3/4 cup thinly sliced cucumber
1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese or feta
1/4 cup thinly sliced scallions
1 ripe avocado, pitted, peeled and sliced
2 hard-cooked (or jammy) eggs, quartered

Steps:

Make the dressing: Zest the lemon into a small bowl, then halve the naked lemon and squeeze the juice into the bowl. Whisk in oil and season to taste with salt and pepper; set aside.
Put the romaine into a large bowl, then top with tomatoes, bacon, cucumber, blue cheese and scallions. Drizzle in about two thirds of the dressing, then toss until well coated.
Place sliced avocado and eggs on top of salad, and season lightly with salt and pepper (especially the avocado, which can take a lot of salt). Drizzle salad with remaining dressing, and serve.

Tips:

For best results, use fresh, ripe vegetables. This will ensure that your salad is packed with flavor and nutrients.
Chop the vegetables into small, even pieces. This will help them to cook evenly and will make the salad easier to eat.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables. There are many different types of vegetables that can be used in a chopped salad, so feel free to mix and match until you find a combination that you like.
Add some protein to your salad to make it a more complete meal. Grilled chicken, tofu, or beans are all great options.
Don't overdress the salad. A light vinaigrette or lemon-tahini dressing is all you need to enhance the flavors of the vegetables.

Conclusion:

A chopped salad is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for a crowd. It is easy to make and can be customized to suit your own taste. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give this chopped salad recipe a try.
