Foody Friday....



So who wants to play? The radio station I listen to has a segment that they do everyday where they talk with the listeners. On Monday's they always talk about the best food that was eaten over the weekend. It's fabulous! I love to hear about new and sometimes very strange things. This can be something you made, something someone else made, or something that you had at a restaurant. It could be simple or gourmet as long as it was fantastic! I don't know how well this will do, but if it turns out to be fun, I would love to do this every week.




For me...homemade pizza. Well almost homemade pizza. Oh my... it was so good I made it twice again the next day and it was just as good! I've found that Safeway has pizza dough in the deli department that is really good, better then others I've tried and so easy to use. On my pizza I started with tomato paste, if you haven't tried this instead of pizza sauce I would recommend it, it has a whole different taste, in a very good way. Sprinkle with some garlic salt, Italian seasonings and pepper flakes. I then layered fresh spinach, mushrooms, onions, cooked chicken, artichoke hearts and fresh mozzarella...I'm drooling just thinking about it! No wonder I put on weight.



So the question is...what's the best thing you ate this week? And if you made it share the recipe!

The best food I ate this last week was hands down Popcorn, Indiana's Dark Fudge Chocolate Chip Kettle Corn.

Oh.
My.
Sooooooo good!

I couldn't find this particular flavor on their website http://www.popcornindiana.com/ but I found it in my local grocery store, so that's what matters!

I haven't had a drop-dead meal this week. So I guess I am just eating the same ole same ole. Time to mix it up!

I think today's lunch will be the best.. one of my favourite Thai restaurants, that is if we can get a seat.

Interesting idea for the tomatoe paste instead of sauce.

I buy these whole wheat flat bread thingies at Whole Foods (they aren't too badly priced, unlike most of their stuff) and make "homemade" pizzas sometimes, so yummy!!

I got ahold of a Cooking Light magazine this week and made 3 things out of it...none of which I liked and none of which anyone in my house liked. HA! Maybe if I would have made the almond pumpkin cheesecake instead for dinner?? My favorite go-to dinner is "homemade" Tokyo Joes .... I buy a jar of their sauce and grill some chicken and steam some veggies and boil some br rice...tastes just the same. :)

I am actually eating lunch while reading this and I am eating a falafel pita from Garbonzo's. That has got to be one of my favorite meals! I am going to have to try tomato paste on pizza. I really like making pizza!

I love Jill's Tokyo Joe's idea.

The best thing I've eaten all week....does a drink count? The hot chocolate at Alfalfa's. I had it twice. So good. Especially in front of a fire....
