Pineapple Ham & Basil Pizza

This Pineapple Ham & Basil Pizza has a very light flavor that is absolutely delicious. I really enjoyed the sweet and salty.

 

This is an incredible blend of flavors. The basil is so fresh with the sweetness of the pineapple and saltiness of the feta and ham.

Believe me, you won’t even miss the pizza sauce.

I used a refrigerated pizza crust, but homemade would just make it better.

Creamy Turkey Tetrazzini From Leftover Turkey

This Creamy Turkey Tetrazzini From Leftover Turkey is an absolute winner. My new “go to” tetrazzini recipe. A great way to use leftover cooked turkey or chicken.

Creamy Turkey Tetrazzini

It’s also an easy one dish casserole that everyone in the family enjoys.

In spite of it’s Italian sounding name Turkey Tetrazzini is an American dish.

It originated in San Francisco and is named after a famous opera singer of the early 1900s—Luisa Tetrazzini—who lived there for many years.

I like the homemade sauce versus using a canned cream soup. It’s a very pretty dish also.

The carrots, peas, and celery all lend beautiful color.

Tips And Tidbits About Crock Pot Cornbread Dressing

For best results, the cornbread needs to be a little bit on the dry side. Day-old is ideal.

I prefer cornbread dressing, however, any kind of bread can be used. Even saltine crackers will do. Whatever you have – use it up! That’s how we roll in at my house.

If you don’t like the texture of a pure cornbread dressing all alone, you can mix the cornbread with some other kind of bread.

  2. Brown the ground beef.
  3. Cut the jalapeno length wise, remove seeds and white ribs. Mince the jalapeno - so no one gets a big chunk of jalapeno when they bite into the meal.

  4. After the meat is browned, add the jalapeno, tomato and 1 can of water to rinse out tomato can. Stir well. (Make sure the liquid is adequate to cook the noodles.) Cook this mixture for about 15 minutes to get the spices well mixed with the tomatoes.
