Topping off the week with Pizza Making
Who needs a takeaway when you can make your own? With the winter weather looking like it’s here to stay, our residents topped off their week, avoided the cold and spent a cosy afternoon indoors, being pizza makers.
Equipped with enough pizza bases to feed an army and plenty of tasty toppings, the residents spread their bases with tomato purée, before scattering on the cheese and choosing their favourite toppings from a choice of cheese, ham, chicken, peppers, sweetcorn, cherry tomatoes, mushrooms, onions, mixed herbs and crushed chillies.
Once cooked and cooled and with the scent of freshly cooked pizza in the air, the residents were very excited to tuck into their delicious creations for their tea, which they all thoroughly enjoyed.
Jayne, our Activities Coordinator said “The residents had a brilliant afternoon making their own pizzas, they could be as adventurous as they wanted to with the variety of toppings that were on offer. Of course, they enjoyed eating them just as much as they enjoyed making them!”
Our residents gave us the following feedback:
“My pizza tastes lovely!” said Jessie.
Margaret S said “mine is very tasty.”
Colin said “Please can we do this activity again? You have made a good job organising this!”
Clare mentioned that “it was nice to hear so many voices and laughter.”
Margaret G asked if she could make a vegetarian pizza for her daughter.
Alan said that had never made a pizza in his life so he made his first one to share with his daughter Lynn!
