White Pizza
I’m considering a pizza bar for halftime dining on Sunday. Here’s what I’m picturing: my kitchen table set with a stack of pre-made crusts and a wide selection of toppings; browned Italian sausage, sliced pepperoni, bowls of sauce and cheese, and lots of gorgeous veggies (green and yellow peppers, naturally!). Guests can all design their own quarter (or third, or half) – you get the idea. I’ll ask guests to bring other essential menu items (green salads, trays of bars), and voila – I’ve arrived at the perfect solution to feeding a pack of hungry Packer fans.

Pea Pesto Crostini
You read that right, it’s not a typo. Keep an open mind. Today’s recipe is outstandingly delicious and is absolutely, 100% worth your time to make and eat. I know this because I witnessed grown women fighting over a platter of these crostini at an ornament exchange last Thursday evening. It was ugly, I tell you! So was the battle over the ornament I brought, (pretty white ice skates from Sendik’s, of course), but that’s beside the point.

Falafel In Pita & Tomato Cucumber Salad
I was feeling quite adventuresome and tried a new recipe last night – new for me anyway. Since NTYB is off clobbering a zillion balls at tennis camp, I decided to make a meal that he would never in a million years ingest or enjoy: falafel, my friends. An irresistible Israeli concoction of smashed chickpeas, onions and cilantro – served in warm pita, with a creamy yogurt sauce. NTYB repellant for sure.

Angel Hair Pasta with Broccoli & Fresh Herbs
I was looking for a quick, concise title for today’s post. I thought about “Fast, Cheap & Easy”, but I thought that would open the door for a deluge of smart-aleck jokes and racy remarks. And this is a family blog.

Ann’s Creamy Carrot Soup
Last Saturday night the Husband and I, along with another couple, had the pleasure of dining at the home of our friends, Ann and Greg. Dinner at a friend’s house is easily my favorite way to spend a Saturday evening. Really, is there anything better than receiving a dinner invitation? It’s a down-right honor, is what it is. That a friend thinks enough of you to pick up her kid’s dirty socks, sweep the crumb-y kitchen floor, and slave away preparing a meal is enough to make me weak in the knees with appreciation.

Very Veggie Side Dishes
I always seem to be at a loss for good vegetable sides dishes. Does this ever happen to you? Not quite sure why I’m uninspired – it’s not like I dislike vegetables or anything, I just get in a rut and end up serving the same dishes time after time – you know, the usual suspects: sautéed green beans, roasted asparagus, steamed broccoli, etcetera…. (big yawn) Happily, the great deals on produce this week inspired me right out of my rut, and I’m excited to share two very (non-boring) veggie recipes with you today!
