My Chronicle

Attainable goals are the ones for me. Encouraged by our dog Spot and family eaters, I purpose to cook once a week and make it new and delicious. If I cook more often, I get more weeks off later on.

Forget Pizza Delivery




I've been on a basil kick lately. That's what makes this bake-yourself at home pizza so delish... and super easy on a busy night! Not only that, with a nice salad you've covered all the health basics. Variations include adding cooked chicken pieces. Yum!

Ingredients:
1 roll refrigerated thin crust pizza dough
1 grocery package of fresh organic  basil leaves
1 jar Alfredo with cheese sauce
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 3/4 cups shredded parmesan cheese
2 Roma tomatoes, sliced thin
Fresh ground pepper

Steps:
1. Bake dough in preheated oven at 400 on jelly roll pan til golden brown, about 9 minutes
2. Slightly cool dough and reduce oven heat to 390
3. Cover dough in this order: Alfredo sauce, mozzarella, basil leaves, tomato slices and then the parmesan and ground pepper
4. Finish baking until cheese has melted to your liking, approx 10 more minutes. Don't let crust burn.

Spot loves this meal cuz there's no onions to frighten her.
