    That cost seems incredibly high, how did you calculate that? Also what are you paying for a loaf of bread? Granted cheese is expensive so depending on how much mozarella you’re factoring in that could play a part, but im still curious about your numbers.

      Herbs, flour, oil, jalapenoes, cheese, and eggs divide by volume all at retail price.

      Egg is for the wash.

      Good oil and herbs are the largest expense if you buy the cheese in bulk (aged cheeses like mozzerella and parmesian are more mold resistant than other cheeses if kept dry), but you could cheap out with a premade herb blend and some generic “olive” oil.

      We might also just have different opinions on what “family size” means.
