Mini Pizzas!

So, I said there wouldn't be any pizza nights, but I accidentally lied. For the record, though, the pizzas Sarah & I have made are much better than these. That's not to say the English muffin mini cheese pizzas aren't good though. They're super quick & extremely easy, which is the best! Plus they hit that pizza craving spot so that's great. Paired with a side salad and strawberries for dessert & you have a super easy, fresh dinner!
Easiest how to ever: English muffins (halves), tomato or marinara sauce, & cheese. (You can add toppings too, if you want). Bake at 350 until you can smell them & the cheese is melted.

Pesto Pasta & Poultry

So, I realize it has been a crazy long time since we last updated. If there's anyone who avidly reads this, I apologize. May is always a crazy month with school & finals, plus we were both sick for a good portion of the month which means a lot of Campbell's soup & nothing fancy. Sarah is home for the summer now, which means no more pizza nights either.

As I'm going through the kitchen trying to use up all my food before the beginning of the summer, I remembered I haven't made pesto in a while, plus I have a lot of chicken in the freezer that I should cook, and I found leftover sun-dried tomatoes. Here's the end result:

Of course, it wasn't as great as the usual family bbq, but it was pretty good for my homework filled, rainy Memorial Day.
