Little Dipper Pizza Fondue Recipe
Day 365, take two.
I was annoyed with the white bean soup with fennel and spinach I made for dinner, but had all the stuff in the house to make a pizza fondue.
So I did.
I used the Little Dipper because I puffy heart LOVE it, but you could use an oven-safe dish inside a regular crockpot to create a smaller cooking vessel. Or you could increase the quantities.
The Ingredients.
--1 cup pasta sauce (my sauce had chunked mushrooms, it was perfect)
--1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
--10 pieces pepperoni, diced
--1 cup shredded cheese (I used a combo of mozzarella, cheddar, and swiss)
The Directions.
Count out 10 pieces of pepperoni. Then eat the rest of the package.
Put the pasta sauce into your Little Dipper, and plug it in. Add the Italian seasoning and diced pepperoni. Shove in the cup of shredded cheese. I promise it will fit. Cover and leave plugged in (there are no heat settings on a Little Dipper) for 45 min or so.
Stir well and serve with tortilla chips, bread sticks, or crustini.
I made some crustini with the Food for Life brown rice bread. I cut the pieces in slices, then brushed olive oil on each side. Sprinkle with kosher salt and pepper. Bake at 400 degrees for about 15 min, flipping once half-way through.
The Verdict.
This was great. We spread out a blanket in front of the TV and had a carpet picnic with the pizza fondue and watched Redbox dvds. How come I didnt know about redbox earlier?
good stuff.
Having a fondue party?
you really should.
fancy cheese fondue
chocolate fondue
peanut butter fondue
marshmallow fluff fondue
pumpkin pie dip
cream cheese, sausage, and Rotel dip (AKA mommy crack)

Egg Crust Vegetarian Breakfast Pizza
 |
| Egg-Crust Vegetarian Breakfast Pizza has a lot of pizza toppings on an eggy crust. |
(This Egg Crust Vegetarian Breakfast Pizza that's also perfect for Meatless Monday is today's pick for the month of Daily Phase One Recipes. You can see all the recipes from the month by clicking Daily Phase One Recipes. Check after the recipe for Phase One Flashbacks from this day in 2012 and 2013.)
When I posted my Egg-Crust Breakfast Pizza with Pepperoni, Olives, Mozzarella, and Tomatoes a few people asked why it was not called a Frittata. (If you're not familiar with Frittatas, they're a type of Italian omelet that's cooked partly on the stove and then finished under the broiler.) These Breakfast Pizzas that I'm having fun experimenting with are made with just two eggs and the egg is about half cooked before the pizza topping ingredients are layered on top. Then the Breakfast Pizza is cooked for a few minutes with a lid on and browned under the broiler so the cheese is melted and golden-brown. There are similarities, but frittatas have much more egg in proportion to other ingredients, while the egg part of the Breakfast Pizza really is more like a "crust" with the other ingredients added on top. This vegetarian version of a Breakfast Pizza was just as delicious as the first one, and I'd enjoy this for a Meatless Monday breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
