ALMOND JOY COOKIES:::

I really Love cookies, because as a kid my Mom and I would dunk them in Milk, it was our special time we spent together, laughing and enjoying each others company.

Now sometimes they were store bought Oreo's or Lorna Dunes, or Fig Newtons, but most of the time they were Home Made.
That's why cookies are always something I have on hand in my cookie jar, or flash frozen to eat later.

The ones pictured are Almond Joy's, I tweaked my original recipe just a bit by adding Coconut syrup 1/3 cup
then adding 1/2 cup slivered almonds crushed into pieces,then the final twist a 1/4 cup of sweetened coconut.

Now of course you could add almond extract to, but I didnot want to for this recipe.
These turned out very noist, with a nice almond flavor, and a little chewy texture because of the coconut.
It was truly like eating a Almond Joy Candy Bar when they use to be delicious!

So when you are in the mood for something chewy, moist, almond and in the shape of a cookie,you can make a batch yourself or place your order with Divadish, Chef Gianna will be glad to help you enjoy a fond memory.

Pasta

divadishkitchenscatering.com

I would not be Italian and my grandmother Julia would roll over in her grave,,, if I did not make a Pasta dish at least once a week!

Here is one of those I can't get enough of dishes...!

It has a very Fancy Italian name, but I choose to call it what it is,,, Angel Hair Pasta W/Sausage.
Of course there is a little more too it then that,,, it has sauteed red onions,green bell peppers,chunk ripe tomatoes,
all seared in dark green olive oil, with fennel, anise, garlic, and sweet basil, add a touch of Sea Salt to the last few secs of cooking.
When you serve this to your guests they will think they have been treated to a Fine Dining Italian Experience!
And so they should, it is a puttsy dish to make but a delicious one to enjoy, so in my book that out weighs the puttsy.

Hope you have Enjoyed this Italian Memory Lane Moment of  My Messano Family Recipe.

ANGEL HAIR PASTA & SAUSAGE

Buon Appetito

Porkchop Pizza

divadishkitchenscatering.com

Divadish Kitchens created this new Meat-Eaters- Pizza for all of those Carnivores!

I use Boboli  as my crust. I just Love the texture of them, and they are all organic, No -Saturated Fats,
and Low in Calories.

Take Boboli crust and spread a thin layer of garlic and olive oil mixture over it and put under broiler for a few minutes.Then proceed with your layering.
I took a Grilled Pork Chop,sliced it and added yellow bell peppers, red onions,and mushrooms.
Sauteed all of this in a small frying pan in a little of olive oil and garlic.
Added Sweet Basil,Fennel, Anise,and Thyme, simmered and started the layers.

When all of mixture is spread out on top of crust add (3) cheese blends and grated Parmesan Cheeses, and a tad of Sea Salt.
Bake @ 425' for approximate 20-25 minutes, depending on your oven. Keep an eye on crust.
Cut in slices, app. 8-10 slices per large pizza.

Add a Greek or Italian Salad and sliced Pears or Apples and you have a delicious meal.

These are available on my Specialty Menus for sale, and also as Appetizers.

Stuffed Peppers!

Stuffed Green Peppers by Chef Gianna owner of Divadish Kitchens & Catering

This recipe has been in my Mother's family over a 100+ years.
All of the Messano's and the Ianos's have tweaked it a bit over the years, but it still is our Comfort Food dish.
Especially when the weather gets colder we all turn to heartier meals.

My recipe uses lean ground organic beef & ground pork sausage.
No rice added to meat mixure, instead I did it like a meatloaf base.
Added fennel, anise, onions, garlic, sweet basil,red pepper, sea salt.
Mixed it all together and stuffed those peppers so full they squeaked for Help!
Covered them with a rich marina sauce, Parmesan cheese, feta, and slow cooked @ 325' for about (1) hour or so.

Heavenly does not even come close when I served these for my own dinner with some nice crusty bread I made earlier in the day. Of course pouring extra sauce all over it, and sopping that up with my delicious homemade bread was divine!

I really do Love to Eat Well, and want my clients to enjoy my original recipes too.

So if you are tired of those microwave meals, Marie Calender is no longer your BFF... and take -out has become
Fake-Out...then pick up the cellie, and call 612-859-3270.. for your next Home Cooked Meal or Meals.
My meals are family -style so you might have left-overs and they all freeze well.

I also teach Cooking Classes and you could learn how to cook this yourself.

Let's talk about the possibilities together, the Sooner the Better, before you fall into a Bad Food Coma!!.....!

Pizza

Divadish Kitchens & Catering Loves, Loves, Loves Pizza!

That is my pizza made with the Boboli Crust.

Using this fantastic crust gives you a Pizza even Pizza Man cannot compete with, and it tastes so much better!
The one I am featuring this month is a Alfredo sauce with Grilled seasoned Chicken and sauteed red onions and green peppers.

The first step in preparing your Boboli is to spread a thin layer of olive oil & garlic powder mixture over both sides of crust.
Next bake it @ Broil temp. but watch it closely it is only to crisp it lightly!!!!
Next take out your crusts from oven spread your Alfredo sauce on crusts medium amount.
Then add your chicken, green peppers,and red onions  generously over pizza crust.
Top all of this with crumbled Feta, (3) cheese blend cheese,Kalamari olives,and a sprinkle of Fennel seeds.
Bake @ 450' for 10-12 minutes ( but watch it so crust does not get over cooked.)
Take out of oven and slice this delicious pizza and serve it with a Greek or Italian Salad...
You will experience Heaven on a Plate, and dreams of Pizza instead of Mistletoe in your heads !

This is just one of my recipes, there are 100's of ways to make Boboli your Favorite Pizza Man tonight or anytime.

Or if you do not want to be The Pizza Man or Woman tonight or anytime Call Divadish Kitchens & Catering.
