Pizza for Breakfast

When we woke up this morning, we were still inspired by the pizzas from last night. (Yes, they were THAT GOOD.)  We prepared the store-bought crust simply by lightly rubbing it with olive oil.  We then topped the crust with scrambled eggs (which had a bit of garlic) and just a few diced green peppers.

Over that, we sprinkled crispy bacon and cheddar cheese and baked it till the cheese melted.










To drink, we got a bit fancy with our sweet iced tea by adding fresh strawberries.

The fun part came afterward when we brainstormed what else we could add to our iced tea.  We then went to the grocery only to find they had no raspberries or blueberries. Seriously, I hate Wal-Mart.

Playin' with Pizza

Andrew and I did some serious experimenting with pizza tonight.

The pizza on the right:
We brushed olive oil infused with onion and fresh garlic onto a thin and crispy crust.

We topped the pizza with green peppers, tomatoes, feta cheese and fresh mozzarella.  We then sprinkled the top with Mrs. Dash.

The flavors were amazing!

I wish the picture of the pizza on the left had turned out better.  If it had, some of you would notice that it's my Buffalo Chicken Dip.  We put ranch dressing on the pizza crust, then the dip.  Oh, my goodness!  The only thing that would have made it better (in my opinion, not Andrew's) is if I had added some thin celery slices as soon as it came out of the oven.

I'm used to pizza having red sauce, but neither one of these did. I was surprised how much I liked them.  I would eat both of them again, but if I had to choose, I would say the Buffalo Chicken one was my favorite.  Good stuff!

Even the dog thought it all smelled good.
If he had gotten any closer to the table, he would have been sitting in Cliff's chair.

Pizza & Cake

Place: Dewey's Pizza on 5th Ave. in Columbus

New tastes: Pine nuts & artichokes on pizza and mint cream on cake.  Not sure I would do the artichokes again, but I definitely would do another slice with pine nuts.  I'm also hoping I can find a good dessert with mint cream.  Recipes?  Suggestions?

I have no idea why I didn't take pictures of the pizzas we ordered:

• Edgar Allen Poe Pizza:  White saucee, olive oil, mozarella-fontina cheese blend, roasted garlic, kalamata olives, goat cheest, tomatoes & parsley.
• Green Lantern Pizza: Red sauce, mozzarella cheese,  minced garlic, goat cheese, artichokes & pesto.
• Custom Pizza #1:  Peppers and smoked cheddar
• Custom Pizza #2:  Ricotta chese, tomatoes & pine nuts

And then there was dessert...chocolate cake with mint cream between the layers.  Chocolate crumbs around the outsided edge, and a layer of chocolate and a layer of mint on top.  So yummy!

It's so good to share food with friends.
