Cheap as chips Pizza Base (and easy to!)

I've been experimenting with pizza base recipes. I am basically lazy but want a terrific soft base that is flexible enough to turn into calzone as well.
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp oil
Around 3/4 cup water
Mix together the flour, salt and oil then slowly add water until you get a nice soft dough.
Roll out onto a floured board then put onto baking paper on a solid oven/biscuit tray.

I was a bit short on toppings so used only Tomato paste, mixed herbs, meatballs made from some sausage meat I found at the bottom of the freezer and a couple of slices of bacon (chopped small)....on top of this I threw around 1 1/2 cups of mild cheese. Bake until golden in a moderate oven (180'c).
Serve with homemade wedges and a simple salad.
Enjoy!
Hubby rated this pizza as 9/10 and better than the pizza place down the road!

I've found a seriously good blog

Well time is flying by, still suffering some lingering effects from the flu and trying to complete a assignment for my legal studies. While procrastinating on writing my assignment I found this seriously great blog by a woman committed to feeding her family on just A$120 a fortnight (I can do it cheaper!) but she has some great ideas and some delicious recipes...check it out: http://120dollarsfoodchallenge.com/

Her recipe for Caramel slice is delicious!
