Chicago Style Pizza

12 years ago (or so), I was in Chicago on a school trip and tried a bite of Chicago Style Pizza.  One bite.  Can't tell you where I had it, but I had it.  And I have been wanting it ever since.  Craving it.  I have NEEDED it.  And there have been other recipes I have seen, but this was the only one I had seen that looked about right, and the directions seemed like it would taste right.  You make your own crust and sauce.  And yes!  It was so close!  It was such a good substitute!  I don't mind substitutes.  I don;t think you could ever exactly replicate a restaurants dish-but I think you can come close.  Have you ever had this pizza?  Do you love it as much as me?
(The recipe is cut in half, so if you have more than 2 or 3 people eating, I would double it and make 2, or however many you need)-ps, the directions may make this pizza seem a little daunting, but I didn't find it too difficult to execute.

Crockpot Chicken Enchilada Soup

This is a GREAT Crockpot recipe!  It was a hit here!!!

Chick-Fil-a Chicken Sandwhich

Hello Pinterest!!!  We are Chick-Fil-a lovers here in Georgia.  When I found this recipe, I knew I needed to try it.  I was pretty good!  And it turned out pretty well!!!  I think the next time I will make it I will let it marinate in Pickle juice for maybe 15-20 min.  So if you try this recipe, try the juice!

Crusty Rustic Bread

This bread turned out soo much better than I was expecting!  I was skeptical at first, because you don't knead it, and it was just so foreign to not do much too the dough.  But I went with it, and the results were A-MAZING.  Soo chewy, and the crust is just perfect-though mine didn't turn out as crusty as I was expecting.  It was so easy, and you can make lots of dough, and it will last for up to 2 weeks in the fridge!  Which means you can keep baking more loaves each week!  This is a recipe I will 100% keep coming back to.

Pesto Chicken

I had forgotten how much I liked Pesto until I made this.  I really like Pesto.  It is so yummy, so flavorful!!!  We paired this chicken with some smooth and creamy mashed potatoes, and had a great meal!!!  And there is only 3 ingredients (minus salt and pepper)!

Monster Cookies


I had these years ago and have craved them ever since.  Then, about a month and a half ago, I discovered them at Target, and started buying one for "the kids" while we shopped.  Then, earlier this week, low and behold, I found it on Pinterest!!!  And woohoo, it is about time!  These are sooo wonderful!  I love peanut butter, oats, and chocolate, so I love these cookies!

Yummy Chicken (Cafe Rio) and Cilantro Lime Rice

 When I first put this chicken together, I was nervous.  It calls for some Italian dressing and some ranch seasoning.  I was nervous that it would taste too much like dressing.  I was wrong.  Incredibly wrong.  This chicken is my new favorite chicken.  It is so versatile too.  Throw it in a casserole, in burritos, or have it in a salad like I did.  Really good.  I also paired mine with Cilantro lime rice.  Oooo I love that stuff.  I am a big cilantro, and lime fan, so it was a hit with me!!!!
