I arrived home Friday after work, greeted by a warm, welcoming fire, a glass of wine, and my wonderful husband. Gary had been to the grocery store that afternoon to pick up items to kick off our newly decreed weekly homemade pizza night. At the inaugural, we agreed to take turns—the first would be Gary’s choice, and he scored, deciding on a wonderful barbecue pizza with bottled barbecue sauce, chicken, smoked mozzarella, caramelized onions, and bacon. Man, was it delicious! Next Friday, I’m trying a Middle Eastern pizza with lamb, pine nuts and other traditional toppings.
I look forward to many fun pizza Fridays—roasted veggie toppings, or chicken cordon bleu, or a Mexican pizza with salsa, black olives, black beans, corn…the possibilities are endless! Easy, store-bought pizza dough makes pizza night effortless, and the fun in creating our own, custom-made recipes is priceless.
Goodbye expensive restaurant take out. Adios boring, mundane, same old same old delivery. So long frozen, bland, cookie-cutter from the box. Hello homemade, fresh, fun, fantastic!!
