Looking for an authentic version of that classic School Lunchroom pizza? Here are two versions that I found. I haven’t actually tried either one (yet) and I never had pizza at school, so I can’t promise the validity - but they sound promising.

School Cafeteria Rectangle Pizza Pizza Crust * 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil * 2 tablespoons yellow cornmeal * 2¾ cups all-purpose flour * ¾ cup instant nonfat dry milk powder * 2 teaspoons salt * 2½ tablespoons granulated sugar * 0.25 ounce quick-rise yeast (2½ teaspoons), also known as instant yeast * 1⅔-2 cups warm water (105°F) Topping * ½ pound lean ground beef * ½ pound mild Italian sausage * 1¾ cups pizza sauce * 4 cups freshly shredded mozzarella * 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning Instructions Pizza Crust * Preheat the oven to 475°F. Coat the entire surface of an 18×13 rimmed baking sheet (also known as a half sheet tray) with 2 tablespoons of the extra virgin olive oil then sprinkle the surface with the cornmeal to keep the crust from sticking to the tray once baked. Set aside.
 * In the bowl of a stand mixer, with the paddle attachment, add the all-purpose flour, instant nonfat dry milk, salt, granulated sugar, quick-rise yeast and the remaining 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil.
 * With the mixer on low, slowly pour in the warm water to your dry ingredients. Start with the 1⅔ cups, then you may need to add a tablespoon at a time, but no more than the 2 cups, to get a pourable consistency to your dough. My dough took a tablespoon or so more than the 1⅔ but did not take the entire 2 cups.
 * Continue to mix on low for 2 to 3 minutes or until you have a smooth, pourable dough. A few small lumps are fine. It should be the consistency of a thick pancake batter.
 * Pour the batter into the prepared rimmed baking sheet and gently spread the dough into an even layer that covers the entire surface of the baking sheet. Allow the dough to rest in the pan for 10 minutes.
 * Bake the pizza crust for 10 to 12 minutes, or just until starting to get golden, on the lower rack of your oven.
 * While your pizza crust is baking, you can prepare your toppings.

School Cafeteria Rectangle Pizza - Continued Topping * In a large 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef and mild Italian sausage for 7 to 8 minutes or until no pink remains. Be sure to break the meat up as it cooks. (That way it looks more like the topping on school pizzas)
 * Transfer the cooked meats to a paper towel-lined plate and set it aside.
 * Once the crust has baked for 10 to 12 minutes, remove from the oven and evenly spread the pizza sauce over the top of the crust.
 * Sprinkle 2 cups of the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
 * Next, evenly sprinkle the cooked meat topping over the cheese.
 * Top the meat with the remaining 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese.
 * Lastly, sprinkle the dried Italian seasoning over the cheese.
 * Return the pizza to the oven and bake, on the middle oven rack, for an additional 10 to 12 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Carefully slice the pizza into 12 rectangular pieces. Notes * It’s really important to make sure your water is the right temperature (105°F) so that the yeast is activated. * Instant nonfat dry milk powder is used for this recipe because it adds richness, and tenderness, to the pizza crust without adding additional liquid to the recipe. The milk also helps with the browning of the crust. The crust for this recipe is meant to be soft and tender, not chewy like a traditional pizza. * To get that authentic look you remember so well from school, spread the sauce almost right to the edge of the crust.

School Cafeteria Pizza II Ingredients Crust: 2-2/3 cup flour 3/4 cup powdered milk 2 T sugar 1 package quick rise yeast 1 tsp salt 1-2/3 cup warm water (110-115) 2 T vegetable oil Filling: 1/2 lb Italian sausage 1/2 lb ground chuck 1/2 tsp pepper 1/2 tsp salt 1 (8oz) block mozzarella cheese Sauce (I make the day before): 1 (6oz) can tomato paste 1 1/2 cups water 1/3 cup olive oil 2 cloves garlic minced 1 t salt 1 tsp pepper 1/2 T dried oregano 1/2 T dried basil 1/2 t dried rosemary Steps Crust: Preheat oven to 475. Spray 18 x 13 sheet pan with Pam and lay parchment paper down. Add flour, powered milk, sugar, yeast, and salt to a large bowl. Whisk to blend. Add oil to warm water. Pour into flour mixture. Stir with a wooden spoon until batter forms. Don’t worry about lumps - you just want no dry spots. Spread dough onto sheet pan with fingertips until even. If the dough doesn’t want to cooperate then let it rest for 5 min and try again. Bake just the crust for 8-10 min. Remove from oven and set aside. Filling: Brown meats (add salt and pepper) until it resembles crumbles. Drain, set aside. Get out sauce. To partially baked crust assemble: Spread sauce all over crust. Sprinkle meats. Sprinkle cheese. Bake at 475 for 8-10 min. Until cheese starts to brown. Let stand 5 min, cut into slices and serve.

Here are two recipes I found in 2022, and stored in my recipes archives. The recipes are in the alts - had to split the first one into two because there was so much info.

Crinkle-cut fries under a heat lamp… elite or embarrassing? 🍟
They started crispy.
Ended soggy.
If your fries aren’t crunchy, we have a problem.
Team crispy or team limp?

Disabled Idaho Students Lack Access to Playgrounds and Lunchrooms. Historic $2 Billion Funding Will Do Little to Help. Despite federal law, disabled students can’t access playgrounds, lunchrooms, classes and bathrooms. With added funding, school districts are still unable to make necessary fixes.

This is enraging 🤬🤬 Disabled students in Idaho are losing access to playgrounds & lunchrooms & $2B in funding STILL isn't enough!

This was some linework heavy concepting I was practising a few years back. It was inspired by Xenosaga.
