Chicken on pizza is so good! Other options - spinach, alfredo as a sauce, italian seasoning, red/green bell pepper, prosciutto or capicola, fresh mozzarella instead or with the goat cheese.... Really the possibilities are endless. Pizza is awesome.

Oh, right, because they eat nothing but beef, every night. Bleh.

Make the pizza with chicken, and don't tell them it's on there. Then if/when they say it's awesome, inform them that it's because it has chicken on it. Revel in their new meal of crow.

20 years ago, I did an anonymous restaurant review column for my small suburban newspaper. A year or so later, I was invited to enter my own pizza in a "Celebrity Chef" contest at an upscale pizza chain in the Detroit area. The night before, I experimented with two pizzas:
Using pre-made Boboli crusts, I applied mozzarella cheese, a thin spread of Major Grey's chutney and pieces of tandoori chicken, for which I have a simple recipe (plain yogurt, lemon juice, vinegar, oil, curry powder and red food coloring; put on a grill). For the second, I kept the cheese and chutney but replaced the chicken with shrimp sauteed with garlic and saffron. For the contest, I worked with a restaurant chef who made the tandoori version, adding some onion. It didn't win, but a version of it suspiciously showed up on the chain's menu in the next year. I entered the saffron shrimp version the next year. It didn't win either, but it was my favorite. Although I've made neither one since.

Mmmmmmm....homemade pizzaaaaa.

I'm a big fan of bbq chicken pizza. Plus, it's SO easy to make.





Tonight, I'm making banana bread :-) I found a recipe on food.com that had a ton of great reviews and edited it a bit- swapped out the butter for margarine, added a few tablespoons of applesauce, a cup and a half of walnuts and a few dashes of cinnamon. There is currently a heavenly scent wafting through my apartment. I hope this thing tastes as good as it smells.

Were you out of chocolate chips and pecans?!  You must have been, only reason to settle for walnuts in banana bread.

(I think walnuts are the wonder bread of nuts. though I did have a cake with walnuts in last week and it was superb)

Tonight we had a pork/shiitake stir fry thing with broccoli.  Steve even ate the broccoli so it must have been good.
