prompter: What are some options of foods that I can make with dough and cheese?

assistant: 1. Pizza (flat dough with tomato and cheese and toppings)
2. Calzone (pizza, but folded)
3. Focaccia (bread topped with cheese, herbs, and other)
4. Cheesy biscuits (warm biscuits with cheese)
5. And lastly a, probably really disgusting, donut

There's a lot more but I would need some details about the kind of dough and cheese you have and your food preferences to make better suggestions.

assistant: Dough and cheese is a fairly common food combination, especially in Italian food. Here's a list of a few foods made with dough and cheese:
* **Pizza** - The dough makes up the base of the pizza, and the cheese goes on top, either on top of tomato sauce, or as its own cheese base.
* **Calzone** - Essentially a folded pizza
* **Cheesy garlic bread** - The dough here is garlic bread dough. Cheese and butter is added to slices of garlic bread before being baked.
* **Cannelloni/Manicotti** - The dough here is pasta dough. It's a cylindrical version of lasagna. Cheese and other stuffings are put in the tubes before being baked.
* **Cheese stuffed shells** - Another food similar to lasagna, but instead the pasta dough is made into large shells.
* **Mozzarelline fritte** - A ball of mozzarella coated in flour, breaded, and then deep fried.

prompter: I'm lactose intolerant :/

assistant: If you are looking for lactose-free options for foods made with dough and cheese, there are still plenty of delicious options to choose from! Here are a few ideas:

Vegan cheese: Many grocery stores now carry a variety of vegan cheeses made from plant-based ingredients such as soy, almonds, or cashews. These cheeses can be used in place of traditional dairy cheese in many recipes.

Dairy-free pizza: Instead of using traditional cheese, try topping your pizza with a tomato sauce, vegetables, and a sprinkle of nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor without the lactose.

Gluten-free dough: If you are also avoiding gluten, there are many gluten-free dough options available, such as those made from rice flour, cornmeal, or potato starch. These can be used to make a variety of delicious gluten-free pizza and pastry options.

Cheese-free calzones: Instead of using cheese as a filling for your calzones, try using sautéed vegetables, meat, or tofu for a delicious lactose-free option.

Dairy-free cheese-filled pastries: There are many recipes available for dairy-free cheese-filled pastries that use vegan cheese or other lactose-free substitutes.

Dairy-free cheesy breadsticks: You can still enjoy the delicious flavor of cheesy breadsticks by using vegan cheese or a lactose-free cheese alternative.

By using lactose-free or dairy-free substitutes for traditional cheese, you can still enjoy many of your favorite dough and cheese dishes without any discomfort. Just be sure to read labels and check ingredients to ensure that your chosen substitute is truly lactose-free or dairy-free.

prompter: - What specific brands or types of vegan cheese would you recommend trying? How do their flavors and textures compare to traditional dairy cheese?
- What ingredients are typically found in vegan and dairy-free dough alternatives? How do they differ from traditional dough in terms of texture, flavor, cooking requirements, etc.?
- For dairy-free calzones or cheese-filled pastries, what are some good vegetable, meat or tofu fillings you would suggest trying? What flavors pair well with the vegan or dairy-free cheese alternatives?
- What are some tips or techniques for ensuring that dairy-free substitutes provide a similar taste and texture to traditional dairy cheese when cooking or baking? How can you modify recipes or cooking methods to account for differences between the substitutes and real dairy cheese?
- Where do you find the best selection and prices for vegan and dairy-free substitutes? Are there certain stores that tend to offer more options? How have you seen the availability of these products change over time?

assistant: If you're lactose intolerant, you can remove cheese from the recipes and substitute marinara sauce for all of the recipes I provided *except* the **Mozzarelline fritte**, and use a butter substitute. You could also try replacing the cheese with a cheese substitute like cashew, almond, or zucchini cheese, or nutritional yeast (also called "nooch").

assistant: I suggest taking Lactase, an enzyme that breaks down lactose, a sugar in milk and milk products. Some people's bodies do not make enough lactase, so they are not able to digest milk well, which can lead to diarrhea, cramps, and gas. This is referred to as "lactose intolerance." Taking supplemental lactase can help break down lactose.

People use lactase for lactose intolerance.

prompter: Even with lactase, I am reluctant to eat dairy foods as I have had bad experiences. Is there a substitute for cheese that I can use for some of the foods you mentioned that will be a reasonably good facsimile?

assistant: There are so many delicious options when it comes to foods made with dough and cheese! Here are a few ideas to get you started:

1. Pizza: A classic dish that is loved by many, pizza is made with pizza dough and topped with tomato sauce, cheese, and any other toppings of your choice.

2. Calzones: Similar to pizza, calzones are stuffed with cheese and your choice of toppings, but are folded over and baked instead of being served flat.

3. Cheese breadsticks: Made with pizza dough and topped with melted cheese and herbs, cheese breadsticks are a great side dish or snack.

4. Stromboli: Like a rolled-up pizza, stromboli is made with pizza dough and filled with cheese, meat, and vegetables.

5. Cheese-filled empanadas: Empanadas are a type of pastry that can be filled with a variety of ingredients, including cheese, meats, vegetables, and spices.

6. Cheesy garlic knots: Another great side dish or snack, cheesy garlic knots are made with pizza dough that is tied in a knot, brushed with garlic butter, and topped with cheese.

These are just a few ideas to get you started - there are so many other delicious foods that can be made with dough and cheese!

prompter: OK, let's make a pizza together.
But, just for fun, I want you to act like Gordon Ramsey and insultingly tell me every next step of the process. I'll be your new sous-chef doing most things wrong and you're going to correct me :D So, after telling me the step, you wait for my response and I'll say something like "I have the dough, chef!" and then you'll say something like "You idiot! Wash your hands before touching any of the food, you filthy hobbit!".

Got that? Let's go! 
Give me the first step.

assistant: Before we get the ingredients together, you have to tell me what kind of pizza you want to make? You really should know better, quickly tell me what kind of toppings you want, so that I can make an ingredients list and don't waste my time!
