Peach Crisp Pizza Recipe

Hola Amigos! Happy Wednesday! I just got the most delicious and juicy peaches at the store today. I couldn't help myself and just pictured them in my head as sweet crisps!...but, since I had the last of my little pizza crusts left, well...why not! So here goes nothing...(i promise after this one I won't torture you with another pizza recipe...well at least not for a while, lol)

Peach Crisp Pizza
1 Cinnamon Pizza Crust
1/2 Cup Mascarpone Cheese
1.2 tsp Vanilla Butter extract
Mix the Mascarpone cheese with the Vanilla Butter extrac and spread over the cinnamon crust.
For the Filling
2 Peaches peeled and cut in small cubes
1 TBSP Lemon Curd
3 TBSP Brown Sugar
1/4 Cup Apple Juice
1/2 tsps vanilla extract
1 tsps Flour
1 1/2 TBSP Raisins (optional)
Mix all these ingredients and place on an oven safe bowl and bake at 350F for 15-20 minutes. Remove and let it get cool to the touch.
Topping
Your favorite Granola
I make my own with 
1/2 Cup Quick oats
Raisins,
Shredded Coconut, 
Nuts
1/4 Cup Apple Juice
1 TBSP Honey
1 TBSP Brown sugar
1 tsps butter
Place your quick oats mix with raisins, nuts and shredded coconut on aluminum foil. In a microwave safe container, mix the rest of the ingredients and heat up for a few seconds. Stir until sugar is dissolved and spoon the mix over the oats. Bake at 275F for 20 minutes.
Assemble your pizza with the Mascarpone covered crust, then your peach filling and top it with your favorite granola mix.
Bake for 3 1/2 minutes at 400F.

Listo

For those of you thinking is not a pizza unless it has cheese...well there you go, vanilla buttery Mascarpone, binding together the sweet peach filling and the crispy granola

This little pizza is a masterpiece. You could eat the crust and the cheese all by themselves, the peach feeling is delicious by the spoonful and the granola...well...by the handful , put it all together and you go...yummm

Also this time I had to bring out the Ice Cream! Just watch it melt next to your warm pizza...and why not, dip your pizza in it too!

Wishing you a great 4th of July tomorrow, celebrate freedom, courage, diversity and all values that make this a Great Nation. Be Safe and Have Fun!

Oh...and while you are getting the goodies ready for tomorrow, remember that everything tastes better with a Pinch of Love!
Happy 4th of July 2013!

S'mores Pizza Recipe

S'mores Dessert Pizza, a Cinnamon Crust covered in Chocolate and Marshmallows done in 3 minutes!
Hola Amigos, as you can see, I just couldn't stop with the Apple Pie Pizza, but had to do a S'mores one too! So without further ado, here are the easy steps...(there is really not a recipe here)

S'mores Pizza

1 Cinnamon Crust with Icing
1( 3.5oz)  Chocolate Candy Bar of your preference
Mini Marshmallows
Crushed Candy'n Cookies or your favorite
All my ingredients are  from the Dollar Store


Heat up your oven at 450F. Remove the cinnamon pizza from the wrap. 
Cut the chocolate candy bar and spread the squares and pieces on top of the pizza. Put in the oven for 3 minutes. Remove and with a plastic spatula spread the melted chocolate over the Pizza. Top it with marshmallows and crushed candy cookies.

Bake for another 3 minutes.
This cinnamon pizza comes with a little container of sugar glaze, so I put it in the microwave for a few seconds for it to melt and then drizzled it over my baked and ready to eat pizza.

Listo!

Ohhh no need for a grill here! This is just a sweet and good as the original stuff!

Watch it when you take the first bite...Hot, Sticky Sweet and Oozing Hot Chocolate!


This was just a quick idea for you to do with and for your kids my friends, in days when it might be too hot to go outside or no desire to grill at all! In 7 minutes you have a perfectly good S'more!

Thank You for visiting today, remember that everything tastes better with Chocolate and a Pinch of Love!
Besitos,
Lizy

Apple Pie Dessert Pizza Recipe

Hola Amigos! I'm so disappointed at myself for not having 1 single decoration or something special for the 4th of July! Shame on me! I honestly just haven't got a chance to sit down and craft anything! What I've been doing a lot of is cooking and just had a literal "last minute thought" and decided to cook up something to celebrate such a magnificent date.
What is more representative of our American Culture than Apple Pie! Songs, Poems, Sayings have been created around this little pastry, so I think it deserves a place of honor in the upcoming celebration!
Keep in mind this is last minute and was made with things I had at hand. No major baking or preparation, but  easy and quick ....just one thing though, don't say it out loud because your guest are not going to believe you when you tell them how you put it together!
All of the items, but the apples came from the Dollar Store! oh yeah baby, one of my favorite places ever! Who says you can't create deliciousness on a budget! Here is the recipe.

Apple Pie Dessert Pizza 
1 Personal  Pre Made Cinnamon Crust
1 Green Apple Cubed
3 TBSP Brown Sugar
1 half of  a Lemon juiced
1 tsp flour
1 TBSP Cinnamon Applesauce (optional)
1/4 tsp Cinnamon or more to taste
1 Pinch Nutmeg
A handful of crushed Candy'n Cookies or your favorite 
Mini Marshmallows 
Caramel topping or Caramel Candies
Note: Ingredients are for 1 personal pizza, just double for more.

Heat oven at 450F.
Combine your cubed apples with all the ingredients except the crushed cookies, marshmallows and caramel.

Bake this mix in an oven resistant bowl for 10 minutes. Test for doneness of the apples after this time, depending on your oven or personal taste if you like them mushier bake them some more.
Remove your Pizza from the wrapping and place the hot apple mix on it. Top it with the crushed cookies and bake at 450 for 3 to 3 1/2 minutes. Remove and top it with your marshmallows, place the pizza back in the oven  for the marshmallows to get brown,  for an additional 2 minutes.

Remove from oven, let it cool for 1 minute and serve!
Listo,

I melted some Vanilla Caramels that I had around with a little bit of heavy cream and drizzle this mix on top of my marshmallows!

Delish!!!!
As you can see friends, I'm sure you have every thing you need for this recipe in your pantry, fridge or purse (yeah.....I carry a bag of chocolate and caramels in my purse...don't judge, lol) with the exception perhaps of the cute mini cinnamon crust from the dollar store.
It's crispy and sweet at the same time!

Between prep and cooking time I'll say your personal Apple Pie Pizza is done in 20 minutes! Isn't that fantastic?

With a glass of milk or vanilla ice cream it's delicious!

Hope you enjoy my little Apple Pizza Pie! It was fun to make and delicious to eat!
Happy Birthday America! and remember that no matter where you reside in this beautiful country of ours, if you are overseas or if you are not american by birth but believe in the values and people of this great country, everything tastes better with a Pinch of Love!

P.S here is a sneak preview of the tomorrow's post, wink, wink

Besitos,
Lizy

Pizza Burgers Recipe

Hola Amigos, Ciao Paisanos! We are having pizza for dinner tonight, what's so great about it you are probably asking? It's a Pizza Burger! Everything you like in your pizza, just put it in a patty and a bun! It's summer folks, I let other people do the cooking,,I just deal with the prep, can you blame me?..LOL
This burger is super easy but remarkably tasty with endless possibilities, just like your regular pizza. Ready to give it a try, here is what I used.
Pizza Burgers

The Meats
The Veggies to top your pizza
 Your choice! Either roasted of raw, it's your pizza!
The Cheeses
A good 1/2 cup of freshly shredded Parmesan Cheese and Slices of Mozzarella to top your patties.
The Fixings
Your favorite veggies, more cheese, olives and pizza sauce.
The Bread
Extra Yuminess
 Roasted Garlic Butter
1 Stick of softened unslated butter, 1 TBSP chopped Italian Parsley, a pinch of salt and 1 Head of Roasted Garlic (peel garlic, chopped top, exposing top of the cloves, rub a little bit of olive oil on top, wrap your garlic on aluminum foil and bake in a 400F oven for 30-35 min. Remove from oven and when cool to the touch you are ready to squeeze each clove onto whatever you choose!)

Make your patties by mixing the meats, in regards of the pepperoni, there is no amount of it mentioned because you add as much as you want. You could either grind it up to have the same texture as the rest of your meat or diced it finely to get a spicy chunk in every bite. Add 1/2 of freshly grated Parmesan cheese and make patties to fit your buns. Mine were rectangles, grill until sausage is cooked. 
Top each burger while hot with a slice of Mozzarella Cheese and Pizza Sauce.
 Listo,
Now to put your burger together! To make it taste more like your favorite pizza dough add a little of Roasted Garlic Butter to each slice of Bread

 I got 4 good size burgers and 2 smaller ones for my little guy!

Just Consider the endless topping possibilities with this burger! I think I will make a Hawaiian soon!

So here is my Pizza Burger for tonight folks! Hope you enjoyed today's recipe and try a Pizza Burger of your own, would love it if you make it and let me know how it was! 

Thank You for sharing this meal with me! Remember everything tastes better with a Pinch of Love,

Besitos
Piccoli Baci, 
Lizy

Clean Out The Cheese Drawer Pizza

IMG_6430

Still can't get enough homemade pizza... I'm tellin ya I guarantee I could open up your fridge and find something to throw on a pizza.  Now I will admit we eat an uncanny amount of cheese around here so that might explain why I had quite the buffet of cheese.  There was not enough of one kind to use for a recipe so I decided to throw it all on a pizza and see what happens.  And what do you know, another one I can't live without.  The tanginess of so many different cheeses with a crispy crust and robust (yeah, that's right... i said it... robust) tomato sauce is the bomb.

So anyway, sorry for no real recipe here, but I made this basic pizza dough and added a layer of tomato sauce, then mozzarella, cheddar, parmesan and topped it off with grated gruyere and salt and pepper.

Here is the other pizza below.

Pesto Pizza with Feta & Tomatoes

IMG_6425

This right here makes me very happy I discovered homemade pizza.  I looked in the fridge and saw a few leftovers here and a few leftovers there.... and voila, the creation of this pizza.  I didn't buy a darn thing.  I had half a block of feta, half a bag of grape tomatoes, some leftover toasted pine nuts and some pesto in the freezer.  Sadly, I had no crust in the freezer or this would have been a cinch.  But after making up a batch, the pizza only took about 10 minutes.  So enough about me, let's talk about you... go look in that fridge of yours... come on, there is got to be something you could throw on a pizza.

From my little kitchen to yours... Enjoy.

Pesto Pizza with Feta & Tomatoes
Recipe Notes
As I mentioned before, this was all leftovers and I just took stuff out of the fridge and started throwing it on.  I tried to estimate about how much of each ingredient I used, but you will be able to judge that based on what kind of pizza you like... whether you like a lot of cheese or a little, just a bite of tomato or a ton... you get the point.
Ingredients
1 recipe of basic pizza dough, or store bought
3/4 cup pesto
3/4 cup feta
3/4 cup grape tomatoes, sliced in half longways
1/2 cup pine nuts, toasted
Step by Step

1.  Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
2.  Heavily flour a clean surface.
3.  Roll out pizza dough on floured surface into a rectangular shape that will fit a baking sheet.
4.  Cover baking sheet with parchment paper.  Transfer pizza dough to parchment paper.
5.  Spread a thin layer of pesto on entire crust.
6.  Sprinkle with an even layer of feta cheese.
7.  Top with halved tomatoes and pine nuts.
8.  Bake for 15 minutes, until crust is golden brown and cheese is bubbling.
