I feel like I should start off with 'don't judge me by the food photos'.  I am not a professional photographer!  OK, I feel better already ;-)

I thought I would share a few of my easy dinner recipes.  Recipes that might inspire you to make home made dinner for your peeps!

I love to eat good food.  Who doesn't?  It's even better when you can make homemade meals fast, and you don't need to use a bunch of processed ingredients. We usually have home made pizza on Monday nights.  It started years ago when I wanted to make Matt 'football' food for when he watched Monday Night Football.  Now it's just part of my Monday routine, kind of like brushing my teeth!

I have used this pizza dough recipe for years.

I make the dough while I am cleaning the breakfast dishes, really it's that easy and fast!  I let the dough rise all day and then about 45 minutes before I want dinner on the table, I start to assemble the pizza.

Last night was BBQ CHICKEN PIZZA.  

Ingredients ::

BBQ sauce {I usually make my own, Ree's recipe is my favorite….it only takes a few minutes}

Olive Oil

Cooked Chicken {I like to use the rotisserie chicken from Costco}

Mushrooms

Red Onion

Mozzarella

Fresh Chives or Cilantro

Directions ::

Pre-heat oven to 425.  Spread out your pizza dough.  Spread 3-4 tablespoons of olive oil over the dough. Spread 2-3 tablespoons of BBQ sauce over the dough.

Chop your cooked chicken and mix with BBQ sauce until the chicken is evenly coated. Spread chicken over dough.

Add sliced mushrooms, sliced onions {and any other toppings that your little heart desires} and top with sliced mozzarella.

Bake at 425 for 15-20 minutes.

Top with fresh chives or cilantro….ENJOY!
