Friday nights have been very important around here....
For a very long time...
Time to eat by candlelight...in the dining room...
Listen to music...eat something special!
We have been doing this since our kids were little...
Mom and Dad's time...catching up with the week...discussing plans...
You get the picture!
Even since all of our kids have moved out...
We still reserve Friday nights for....US...time to relax...enjoy...chat...
And....last Friday night was no exception...although we would have rather been at the Cottage!
We had homemade Pizza...well...almost homemade...I bought the crust!
It is from ACE bakeries...lovely and chewy, with herbs and olive oil...
The perfect setting to build one of our custom order Pizzas!
Ingredients are prety darn simple...
Olive oil on the bottom and top of the crust...
Sliced tomatoes...sauteed mushrooms,peppers,onion and some sausage I ahd bbq'd the night before...
Chopped black and green olives...
Sprinkle of Parmesan cheese...
lots of goats cheese...
and
smoked salmon on my boyfriends half...
No Mozzarella for us...{boyfriend has cholesterol issues}
Into the oven on a preheated pizza stone...
Maybe 20 minutes...
Perfecto!!!
Drizzle some more olive oil....
Tear some fresh basil...
Slice and enjoy!!
This time...and this was the first time...
I poured a wee bit of Parmesan yogurt dessing over top...
YUMMO!!!!!
I served this with a grape tomato and avacado salad...forgot to take a pic of that!!
SO...this is for Ivy over at The Happy Whisk...she is a smartie...she makes her own crust!!! great little blog!!
I will leave you with a slice of Blueberry Buttermilk Breakfast cake...
Smothered in fresh berries and fat free yogurt....
Scrumptuous!!!!
~~~~~~~~~
Hope you all had a great day....
