The next time you’re planning a pizza night at home, forget your usual delivery spot and make your own pie. With these easy and authentic recipes for homemade pizza dough, you can turn your apartment into your own miniature pizzeria!

Pizza Crust [King Arthur Flour]
If you have some free time early in the week, make this simple recipe that holds for up to two days. It bakes thin and crispy when rolled flat with a rolling pin, but if you prefer a chewy crust, it can also be made thicker.

Quick Basic Pizza Dough [Martha Stewart]
For hot, fresh pizza on the spot, this quick dough is very simple to make. Simply mix your flour with olive oil, salt and a sprinkle of sugar, and then give it a few kneads before using. If you have leftover dough, you can also wrap it in secure plastic wrap and store it in the freezer for up to three months.

My Favorite Pizza [The Pioneer Woman]
Whether you’re a vegetarian or a meat lover, this recipe for pizza crust can be topped with anything to make it your own. This recipe makes two separate pies, so it’s perfect for pizza parties, and it even stores in the refrigerator for up to three days.

Roasted beets with confit cherry tomato, pickle fresno chiles, toasted hazelnuts, and chocolate. Creamy, light mushroom risotto. Ceviche swimming with local fish and shrimp, red onion and white corn, aji limo and leche de tigre, and served with yucca chips. These are just a handful of the inventive, unexpected dishes on the menu at Pinch Kitchen, where the chef/co-owners' motto is "small bites, big impact."

Using high quality, fresh ingredients, they craft small plates that make "big impact" on your taste buds, including the aforementioned. But you can also try the roasted organic carrots with tzatziki and mint, the Rhode Island bay mussels with andouille sausage in shellfish broth, or the eight-ounce grass-fed flat iron steak with house-crafted smoky chimichurri. Just save some room for the orange-chocolate souffle or the house-made baba aux rum cake with thyme gelato.

Truffled scrambled eggs over a golden-brown toasted bagel, with a small salad on he side. Sweet potato hash mixed with chorizo, charred red pepper, and caramelized onion, an egg on the side. A "gazpacho Bloody Mary" with freshly squeezed lime juice, gorgonzola olives, a stuffed piquillo pepper, celery, and citrus-y salt. These are just a few of the brunch dishes and drinks that make Apeiro Kitchen and Bar such a popular spot on weekend mornings.

However, you can also come for dinner to indulge in the contemporary Greek fare. Start with a few small plates, like the "balloon"—a dish of house-crafted pita bread served simply with olive oil, balsamic, and some sea salt. Or dig into a smorgasbord of Apeiro spreads, including hummus, pistachio yogurt, and eggplant caponata with the fresh pita. Then move on to the main event: a kabob packed with lamb kefta or beef sirloin, seared wild salmon, roasted branzino, or a juicy steak.
