Pizza for Lunch

DiGiorno Pizza from the Frozen Food case at Kroger...would have thought it?  We have been trying frozen pizza on and off for several years. No luck; all yuck!  It cost about the same as eating pizza out...so why not go out.




Then, on our weekly grocery store trip we picked up a DiGiorno Supreme.  It is a little larger than the pizza we get out and costs less.  


We cooked it today for lunch.  It was delicious. However, we are going to have to work on our cooking method...the center of the crust was cooked, but soft.  We like crisp crusts.  We set the pizza on a rack on a cookie sheet thinking that would keep the oven clean and the pizza still be crisp. No!  
Next time we'll follow the directions on the box and set it directly on the oven rack.  I am afraid I'll be cleaning the oven.  If so, we will probably go back to eating pizza out and they can clean their oven!

Homemade "Quick" Potato Soup Tonight

Eating in tonight!  We had a "teaser" Spring week and now we are back to cold temperatures with a chance of major storms in the next few days.  Perfect weather for Potato Soup.




We are having tuna fish sandwiches with it. Don't ask me why...for some reason, I like them with Potato Soup? 


Recipe for:

EASY POTATO SOUP

2 lb. package frozen hash browns
1 Cup chopped onion 
(see tip below for quick chopping)

Uhm-Uhm Good!

1 - 14.5 oz.  ready to serve chicken broth

That's What Campbell's Soups
Are--Uhm! Uhm! Good!

1 - 10.75 oz. can Cream of Celery soup, undiluted
1 - 10.75 oz. can Cream of Chicken soup, undiluted
2 Cups milk

Combine first four ingredients in a Dutch oven;
 bring to a boil.
Cover, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
Stir in soups and milk, heat thoroughly.

Garnish with: 

grated cheese, diced ham or bacon

Yield: 2 1/2 quarts

Enjoy! Enjoy! Enjoy!


Tip for chopping/dicing onions:
Remove outer peel  and first layer of onion.
Cut into rings. Lay each ring flat and cut in half. 
Starting on one end of the half make small cuts.
As you scoot the onion ring counter-clockwise,  
the rings will come apart leaving only small pieces
of the onion.

The Pizza Cafe Thumbs Up!

Our favorite pizza; our favorite place to eat pizza!  It has to be.  We keep coming back for more.

We have looked far and wide....

Hillcrest Little Rock

Last night was "pizza night"!  We eat pizza at least once a week. We eat pizza when we are too tired to or don't want to cook/eat at home.  Where did we go?  Of course, our old stand-by and "favorite", The Pizza Cafe.  Yum-m-m-m!  

Sitting at the bar watching a basketball game-Beer in a mug from the fridge, a small dinner salad with ranch on the side and a 10" Supreme Pizza. It was not only Supreme; it was sublime.
