Last night we had the perfect Friday "ladies night" part-aaa....Pizza night! For the first time, we somehow managed NOT to cook for 75 people;)...but by no means were we short on flavors or creativity!
I broke out my "Food Network 50 Pizza's Booklet" from their magazine and made this: Sweet Potato, toasted walnuts, blue cheese and sage on a whole wheat crust. It was a FALL PIZZA if there ever was one! ;) (Too bad it's Memorial Day weekend;) hahahahahha....
And my friend made an awesome chicken bruschetta pizza with lots of grape tomatoes, chicken, onions and cinnamon basil from her own garden! Topped with mozzarella on a garlic herb crust (as we both ran into each other "crust shopping" at the Trader Joe's;)
We somehow managed to make the 2 most contrasting pizzas around:) Mine was super thin and crispy, while her's was hearty and melty deliciousness! Both were SOOO good!!!!
Since it was a tad chilly on the sun porch last night...we needed SOMETHING to warm us up! Thank goodness I found this CHOCOLATE WINE at Trader Joe's...YES, I said CHOCOLATE WINE!!
Now you just learned yesterday that I am NOT a wine drinker (look at me drinking it 2 days in a row!), but this was too damn intriguing to pass up! And it did NOT disappoint! It was a little strong on the wine taste at first, but after a few sips: all you could taste was the luscious creaminess of the chocolate. I KNOW it sounds odd, but if THIS GIRL likes it...I imagine a REAL wine drinker would love it!
And finally, our grand finale: My friend made us a most-decadent CHOCOLATE NUTELLA pizza with white chocolate chips & nuts. There MAY or may not have been even MORE nutella spread on this after it was warmed in the oven...but I mean, can you blame that person?? Nutella is proof that there is a God and that he wants us to be happy;) hahahahahahhaahhahaha....;)
A MOST delicious evening...and I do believe I am not alone in that sentiment:) Have a good Saturday! I already have more things to share later on! ;)
OH and Ps-I DID get that run in yesterday afternoon...and I'm super proud to say I came in 5 minutes earlier than the last few times;) Must have had at least a FEW more jogs than walks this time around;)
