Simple fiesta

Avocado, broccoli, ground beef and garlic with Humboldt goat cheese crumbled on top. This takes no more than about 6 minutes to make and it's all fresh and so so good!

Place amount of desired raw ground beef in pan season with garlic salt and pepper. Once there is no more pink add in broccoli, avocado and fresh garlic cook until broccoli is soft and serve with goat cheese if desired.

When I'm hungry I usually want something quick, but not frozen and I like it to be tasty and somewhat healthy for me. Sauteing up some fresh vegetables  is always quick and delishes and if you like meat you can always add it in and still have a quick and easy meal.

You can always add fresh French bread to complete this dish.

Enjoy :-)

Pizza's in the new apartment

Living in my first apartment slowly I have came to realize while cooking meals, I do not have all the normal equipment I normally would to make home made pizzas. Now buying all the ingredients is no problem! It wasn't until after making the dough and letting it rise, I realized oops, I don't have any pizza sheets, and only one cookie sheet, but... I have pie pans!

Being a college student, you have to make due with what you have, and use that imagination to create the meals you want with out going out to buy all new materials.

pizza making 101

Ingredients: flour, yeast, water, seasonings for the dough, water, random toppings from the fridge.

Meat lovers pizza; base olive oil and garlic, toppings pepperoni, grilled chicken, bacon, and shredded cheese

 Goat cheese veggie pizza; olive oil, garlic, black olives, spinach, jalapenos, red onion

BBQ Chicken pizza, BBQ sauce, shredded cheese, red onion, green bell pepper, bacon, diced tomato

Making due with what you got is not only simple, but also easy, pizzas in a pie dish not only works, but is a great idea for trying to make small pizzas, or if you want multiple types of pizzas, but you don't want 3 large size pizzas.
