When you want to stay home, nice and warm, but still have a fun “Date Night”- throw a pizza party! Finding the silver lining of all this cold weather, for us, has been to make staying in fun, stay home, relaxed and cozy cozy. Making an active dinner is a way to have FUN date, and you don’t have to go far or spend a lot of money at all, even wear your pj’s. We had store bought pizza dough from Trader Joe’s, they’re pizza sauce too, mozzarella, black olives, artichokes.. use what you have- chop it up and roll out some dough. I call this active cooking because you are eating while you cook the next little pizza treat, drinking some beer and relaxing in the kitchen ( as opposed to sitting in front of the TV while scarfing down your meal and not talking- this happens to everyone else right?) We make super thin small pizzas and snack on them as we make them. Have some good music on- no TV, and enjoying being home! If you want to make your own dough- check a favorite recipe here
