A white pizza (or bianca pizza as they say in Italy) probably is not as flashy as some of the other pizzas I’ve posted, but if you love cheese like I do, it is a must try. Get the best dough, olive oil and cheese you can, it makes a huge difference. The photo is…
Buffalo Chicken, Bacon and Bleu Cheese Pizza
I like buffalo chicken wings. I like pizza. I like bacon. I like bleu cheese. Why not make that a pizza? I think this came about one day hanging with my niece and nephew. I wanted to encourage them to cook so we started making pizzas. They could put whatever they wanted on their pizzas….
Philly Cheese Steak Pizza
This may not be authentic, but it was good. Another perfect example of taking something good and making a pizza out of it. If you missed last weeks post, check out my “Croque Madame Pizza”. Leftover flank steak turned into another sandwich turned pizza. You could saute the veg before but I like the bite…
Croque Madame Pizza
One of my favorite sandwiches of all time is a Croque Madame/Monsieur. It is basically a fancy grilled ham and cheese. The Madame just adds a egg to the top of the Croque Monsieur. I’ve had this sandwich so many times in so many places and they all varied a bit, but they were all…
Pepperoni, Prosciutto and Pancetta Pizza
We LOVE pizza. I’ve been a little bit of a pizza snob for, oh, 20 years or so. I used to order delivery pizza once a week. Then I discovered store bought fresh pizza dough. With really good pizza dough and a pizza stone, you can make your own pizza at home with whatever toppings…
Copy Cat Mexican Pizza like from “the bell”
As a kid one of my favorite things to eat was the Mexican Pizza from that fast food restaurant with “the bell”. Crispy, savory, gooey, yummy all in a little box for ease of consumption. Having lived in Europe through high school, when we got back to the states I wan’t a Chick-fil-a sandwich and…
Pesto, Chicken, Artichoke and Roasted Red Pepper Pizza
I’ve been making this pizza for years. I wish I could find the recipe I used the first time but just know I didn’t come up with this one. Someone else out there on the interwebs should get the credit. The pesto as the sauce with the other ingredients makes for a nice mix up…
Healthy Mac’n Cheese – Vegetables, Tofu, Potato, Pasta and Cheese (REBOOT)
I made this before, several times in fact. Each time I’ve made it I’ve tweaked to make it better. I thought it would be good to repost/reboot it with the changes I’ve been making to make this dish even better.
Seared Scallops, Wilted Local Kale and Pecorino Romano Cheese Grits
Scallops are amazing. I’ve said before, they are the steak of the sea. They cook in no time at all and done properly, taste great. This meal was simply an excuse to eat scallops. I bought the local scallops and had no other plan than them. We got home and had some fresh local kale…
Pork Loin, Roasted Green Beans and Smashed Fingerling Potatoes with Bleu Cheese Butter
A midweek date night took us to a new local restaurant. We had a fantastic first experience at The Farehouse in Taylors, SC. The space is amazing (in an old bleachery), the drinks were perfect and food was very good. We liked it so much we went back to relive the experience but unfortunately the…
