Pizza Balls

Pizza Balls

What you’ll need:

1 bag pizza dough

1 can pizza sauce

1 mozzerella cheese ball

Any toppings you want

This recipe came off Pinterest and was so YUMMY and a lot of fun to make with my “little chef”. It’s pretty simple, and you can really put whatever you want into them.

First, Roll out the dough into small balls, make sure you have some flour on your workspace or they will stick!

Then, place the sauce in the middle, and well as the cheese and then your toppings. Fold over the edges of the dough to create the ball.

On a greased cooking sheet, place balls seam side down.

Place in oven on 400 degrees, and cook until golden brown ( or whatever color you like them to be.)

Let stand for 5 minutes and enjoy!!!

Persimmon Bread

I was given a bag of persimmons on Saturday and honestly, had no idea what they were. I didn't want them to go to waste so I googled ideas and found this recipe! The bread turned out really well, and is perfect for breakfast! 

2 eggs

         1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

         3/4 cup white sugar

         1/2 teaspoon salt

         1/2 cup vegetable oil

         1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

         1 cup persimmon pulp

         1/2 cup chopped walnuts

         1 teaspoon baking soda

         1/2 cup raisins

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Oil a 9 x 4 inch pan.

In a small bowl, combine flour, cinnamon, salt, nuts, and raisins.

In a large bowl, blend eggs, sugar, and oil. Mix baking soda into pulp, and add to sugar mixture. Fold in flour mixture. Pour batter into prepared pan. Cook for 60 minutes.

Tacos de Gutierrez

I am so proud of this next recipe! I was inspired by a taco plate I saw at a Mexican restaurant on a date with my hubby, and thought I could do it better, and I DID! =)

This meal took about 30 minutes from start to finish, and was super filling and NEVER boring.

2 Chicken breasts, cut up into cubes

Pita bread

1 Bunch of cilantro

¼ Of a red onion, cut into moons

½ Can of chunked pineapple

1 Tsp Chili powder

In a pan, place your cubed chicken and some olive oil. Then add in your seasonings and your lemon and lime juice, stir on medium/high heat until cooked through.

Dice up the cilantro, red onion and combine with pineapple then set aside.

Warm up your pita bread and cut into triangles, place around plate.

Mix ALL ingredients together, grab some forks, and dig in!
