Tomato and egg crisps

Tomato and egg crisps.

I suppose this could technically be called a breakfast pizza but the crust ended up being very thin and crispy like a cracker.



I started with making Jenna's pizza dough.




The dough recipe makes enough for 4 decent sized pizzas so I divided it into quarters and froze all but one section.




Then I rolled out the dough.



While the dough was rising I put 1 cup of pizza sauce along with 1/2 tsp of oregano, basil, parsley, 1 tsp of Tofutti cream cheese and 1 cup of water. 


I let this simmer and reduce until it was a thick paste. 


Then I spread a generous amount onto the dough. 




And then a heavy snowfall of grated Parmesan.




It went into a 400 degree oven for 10 minutes. Then I pulled it out and carefully ladled on 3 eggs.


I put it back into the oven for about another 6 minutes. Just cook it until the eggs are set the way your prefer.










A sprinkle of oregano on top.


A very delicious breakfast and I have leftovers to have for another two meals. 


Happy Wednesday everyone!

Pizza blintzes


Pizza blintzes for breakfast.

I had some leftover batter from the crepes I made yesterday
 so I decided to try my hand at making blintzes.


It turns out blintzes are pretty much just crepes that are folded a different way.


The assembly:






Pizza sauce.




Leftover crepe filling.




A dusting of Parmesan.






Then they went back into the pan with a little olive oil.












These were delicious and can be easily made sweet. I think I would have enjoyed one stuffed with some marscapone cheese and some jam.




But I was happy with the savory version. The only thing that would have made this pizza blintz better is if I had some mozzarella cheese to put in the middle.


Oh, and if you were curious about how my henna tattoo was holding up:




It is tough starting back into the week after the long weekend.


Happy Tuesday everyone!

My new love



It is in the '90s here today and I have been drinking water non-stop. 

When I was making my green drink, I pulled out this sorbet, tasted one spoonful and I was in love!

I have indulged in two bowls so far but since it only has 60 calories per serving, I haven't gotten too far out of control...yet.

My second try at making pizza turned out much better.


I cooked a couple of Rosie's chicken breasts and chopped them into chunks.


And I doctored up the pizza sauce with - 

- 2 tsp. of Tofutti cream cheese
- 1 carrot, shredded
- 1/2 tsp. of raw raspberry honey

This turned the sauce from an overly acidic red sauce to a pink colored ambrosia. It was like a really tasty, thick tomato soup.



The chicken went on next.




Then I piled it high with the mozzarella cheese blend and it went into a 450 degree oven for 14 minutes.




I thought it could use some greens so I tossed some baby greens with some raspberry vinaigrette.


The dogs didn't get to have any of this - It was too delicious!












I hope everyone is having a good Monday.


I am going to go open my freezer and stare longingly at the container of Ciao Bella sorbet...
