I’ll admit that a number of the recipes I have on here are either complex or have a million ingredients (often spices and or fresh veggies). To add a little simplicity, I decided to go the other route and find a four ingredient dish that you would all love.
I pulled up Google in my browser and search for: 4 ingredient recipe. Over 55 million hits were returned. Wow! Kinda big. I added quotes to the front and back of the phrase and it still returned 108 thousand. I cannot say this is for sure the best of the bunch but it was delicious and easy!
4-Ingredient Pizza Bake
Cheesy…gooey…pizza. What’s not to love?
OK, there really was 5 ingredients but you could use water instead of milk and very few people call water an ingredient that you need to list!
Make the dough and spread it out as best as you can on the bottom of a baking dish.
Cover with sauce.
Add pepperoni and cheese.
Doesn’t that look awesome? I sprinkled some Italian seasoning on top (yes….a sixth ingredient…are you keeping tabs on me!??!?!?!?!?!!!).
Almost like a deep dish pizza right from your oven.

What recipes did you find with four ingredients that didn’t come out of a package? How many ingredients were listed in your packaged foods (and how many chemicals?)? And yes, it does look delicious :).

This looks like the perfect recipe to teach child number 2, who escaped the house without really learning how to cook much. He had two phases – gone and asleep! When he comes over now, I try to corral him to cook something with me, then we print out the recipe if he likes it so he can make it at his place.

You’re veering into Bisquick Impossible Pie territory there! That looks like regular ol’ Bisquick—how many cups does the 2 packets equal?
