If you read my post here, you know I hosted a Pampered Chef party at my house Friday night. It was a lot of fun and the food was yummy. I ended up with over $200 worth of free products! I was not expecting much; it was just an excuse for a “girl’s night in” and to show off the new house. I wanted to share the 2 recipes that were made for us.
Fantastic Foccacia Bread:
1 pkg. (10 oz.) refrigerated pizza crust
2 garlic cloves, pressed
2 C. shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
2 oz. Romano cheese grated, divided (I just used shredded Italian mix)
2 tsp. dried oregano leaves, divided (or Italian seasoning)
2 firm plum tomatoes, sliced
Preheat oven to 375*F.
Roll pizza crust into a 12-inch circle on 13-inch baking stone using lightly floured pizza roller. Prick dough thoroughly with a fork before adding toppings. Press garlic; spread evenly over crust. Grate half of Romano cheese (1/3 cup) over crust. Sprinkle with 1-cup mozzarella cheese and 1 teaspoon oregano. Thinly slice tomatoes; arrange in single layer over cheese.
Top with remaining mozzarella cheese and oregano. Grate remaining Romano cheese over top. Bake 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly. Cut into squares; serve hot.
Tip:
*add onions, peppers and olives
*Use Large bar pan or other rectangular pan since dough already rolls out in that shape.
We had very little leftover-what we did have left “Monkeyboy” ate as “pizza” for lunch the next day.
Blueberry Dump Cake:
1 can of Blueberry pie filling
1 container of fresh Blueberries, rinsed
1 short can of crushed pineapple
1 yellow cake mix
2 sticks butter, melted
1 bag of crushed nuts, walnuts or pecans are good!
Preheat to 350* F
In a 13 by 9 pan, dump BB pie filling, fresh BB and pineapple, and mix together.
Sprinkle DRY cake mix and cover completely and evenly on top of BB mixture
Sprinkle nuts on top of cake mix.
Pour butter evenly over cake mix and nuts.
Bake for 45 mins.
Be patient and Let cool b/c it is HOT!
Tip:
Serve with ice cream
NOTE: Can be done with cherry pie filling too.
This is the most delicious dessert and I don’t like blueberries! I had to put some away for hubby because it was gone in a flash!
These could end up being inexpensive recipes if you plan ahead and watch the sales. You can get $1/2 Kraft Cheese, $1/1 I Can’t Believe It’s not Butter, and $0.40/2 Pillsbury Italian Bread coupons right now.
Thanks Tiffany for letting me share your recipes!
