This week's Recipes

Hello All,

Here are some recipes i have done this week that i really like.

Pizza Twists

Dipping Sauce:

1 Tbsp Olive Oil

1 small onion

1/2 green bell pepper

1 tsp. Crushed Red Pepper Flakes

1 15 oz can fire roasted tomatoes

Salt and Pepper

In sauce pan saute diced onion and bell pepper in olive oil until slightly tender, add crushed red pepper flakes, salt and pepper, and tomatoes. bring to boil, reduce heat and let simmer for 10 minutes.

Twists:

1 tube refrigerated pizza dough

pepperoni slices

grated mozzarella cheese

Roll out pizza dough, on half the rectangle layer pepperoni slices and sprinkle with cheese. fold the untopped half of the dough over pepperoni and press at the edges. with pizza cutter cut 1 inch strips, twist and place on greased sheet pan. continue with all the dough and spray the twists with non-stick oil spray then bake at 400 for 10 - 13 minutes or until slightly golden brown.

These are SO good, i Love the sauce! I always try a recipe and then add my own "opinions" to it. with this one i like to add about a cup of bottled pizza sauce to it and i change the amount of Red Pepper flakes according to who i am serving it to and what heat level i want. i have also used red, yellow, and orange bell peppers in place of the Green and its all good, and i usually dice up the whole pepper instead of half. i always make a lot of these pizza twists and sauce because they are always super good fresh as well as rewarmed.

Fettuccine Alfredo:

1 16oz package Fettuccine noodles
1/2 C Butter
2 C Cream or Half and Half
1 C Grated Parmesan or Parmesan Wedge
1 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Pepper

Melt butter in large skillet, add cream, salt, and pepper and bring to boil. Simmer uncovered to reduce and thicken. Remove from heat and stir in Parmesan cheese and noodles. Can add cooked diced chicken and cooked broccoli as well.

This is So Good too! I pretty much follow the recipe on this one. :)
