Fifty-Two Dinners

One new recipe a week for a year. That was the original goal set as a New Year's resolution way back in 2009.

It didn't happen. Nor did it happen in the following years.

But I have continued posting and striving to try one new recipe a week. Some months it happens. Some months it doesn't.

And along the way I've picked up readers from across the country who occasionally pop in to see what's cooking.

Clearly there are better food blogs than mine.

But if you're looking for quick, easy, and healthy with a dash of humor... I'm glad to share what I can.

Arugula Mozzarella Pizza on Naan Bread

This week as I was pulling into the driveway after 6pm I talked to a friend who was also just getting home.  They were ordering pizza because "I can't get home this late and make dinner!  Who has time for that?"

Friend, meet grilled naan pizza.  You can make it in less time than it takes for the Domino's driver in the busted up 1996 Honda Accord to deliver fake pizza to your door step.

INGREDIENTS

2 naan breads (garlic flavor is great!)
pizza sauce (or regular tomato sauce and fresh tomato chunks)
fresh mozzzarella (or the shredded bag kind)
dash of oregano
Italian seasoning- to taste
Arugula- optional

DIRECTIONS

So you can see that my ingredients are pretty loosey-goosey.  Same for the instructions.  Make the pizza, throw it on the grill (around 300 degrees is good- keep it low and slow) for about 10-15 minutes until the cheese melts.


VERDICT

Use whatever you have in your cabinets.  You honestly can't get this wrong.  As long as you have some kind of tomato product, some kind of cheese, you're golden.  So put the phone down.  Dinner is on the grill.

If arugula and fresh mozzarella are too exotic (or you don't have them on hand... because, you know... I wouldn't normally if I didn't have my week's meals planned out), try one of these quick pizza recipes instead:
