Anyway, we are trying to get back to our empty nest again. It is lonely, to say the least.
I am cooking, but not as enthusiastically! The 'old man' and myself weren't much into the mood for going out, so I thought I'd whip up a pizza dough. Pizza.....it really isn't cooking dinner is it? I threw the dough together in my sleep and boy did it turn out lovely! Sometimes when you turn on the 'auto-pilot', and something turns out great, that is the day you wish you had invited friends over OR were teaching a class!!
I wanted to experiment a little and remember I had bookmarked a blog entry a while ago for stuffed pizza. Interesting idea, huh! A take on a deep dish pizza with a lid!
I coaxed the dough into the springform pan, had some spinach on hand, there was some feta ready to use, cheddar and a mozzarella ball. I threw this concoction into the pan and topped it with a thin piece of dough. Baked for about 35 minutes and well, it was very good. Check out in this link for a look at the mini version. They are so cute, plus the stuffing ideas are endless! It is a fun way of cooking up a pizza!

That looks so good! I love a savory pie...and the springform pan is very clever- it all looks so yummy.
Yes, I saw that one also and really want to give it a whirl - not the crust, I can't do that but I do still make an excellent crust.
The springform pan is an excellent idea! Like the variation.
Impressive Melissa.
Wow. Looks really yummy. Now, I am hungry for stuffed pizzas.
It's on the 2nd day of February that most of our neighbors take out all their Christmas deco, even in our home too. (ha-ha) Know what? Now I'm craving for pizza because of the pics. :)
Looks yummy, great for a cold winter day.
