Bacon Pizza {Homemade}

Bacon Pizza {Homemade}

The other night, I had some cooked bacon that I needed to use before it went bad. I also had some homemade dough in the fridge, so this homemade bacon pizza came to mind. It turned out amazingly! Who doesn’t bacon? Who doesn’t love bacon? I put this pizza down, turned around to get a drink, and there were just 2 pieces left! Next time, I’ll know to make a double batch.

Who doesn't love pizza?  And who doesn't love bacon?  Well why not put them together in a  homemade bacon pizza.  Delicious!

Servings: 4
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:
Fresh dough or refrigerated dough
1 jar of pizza sauce (I use homemade sauce)
3 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese
8 pieces of finely chopped cooked bacon

Sausage, Shrimp, And Spinach Bowl

Sausage, Shrimp, And Spinach Bowl

While in Atlanta a few weeks ago, Rob and I enjoyed a meal at Steamhouse Lounge. We got the Sausage, Shrimp, And Spinach dip, that was absolutely killer! That dip inspired this meal. After my initial time making it, I plan to tweak it, which I’ve noted in the directions below.

This Sausage, Shrimp, And Spinach Bowl is a bowl of comfort, perfect for those brisk nights.

Buffalo Chicken Roll-Ups

Buffalo Chicken Roll-Ups

Recently when I made the Bacon Cheeseburger Roll-Ups, I decided it was too good to limit to just that. I was having a craving for buffalo chicken. This buffalo chicken roll-up recipe is so easy, whether you use the refrigerated dough or pre-make the homemade dough in the bread machine. I love that they are good for a lunch or dinner on the go, which with our busy schedules is wonderful!

Sunday, we had a great afternoon and evening visiting with our friends that came over. We’ve been talking with them about Rob’s recipe for homemade pasta called Cavatelli or Cavatels. Making cavatels is not a meal that an individual should make. For it’s way more fun to gather around and take turns cranking the cavatelli maker, watching the noodles fall from the machine.

I used to love getting the chicken cordon bleu in the frozen section until I realized how much sodium they had. Really overall, just super unhealthy. I love being able…
