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!

divadishkitchenscatering.com
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

divadishkitchenscatering.com
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.
This is a Safe transmission for all to read, Humans and (4) legged creatures.

I hope Santa fills your stockings with Much LOVE, and Kisses instead of just Presents!

Turkey Dinner


divadishkitchenscatering.com
Traditional Turkey @ Divadish Kitchens:

First thing is get a all organic bird.
Second do not get the self -basted or juiced brands
This will save you money and calories, but especially TASTE!!!
Third take out gizzards bag, and put them in a pot half full of chicken broth and Kitchen Bouquet.
Fourth: Add onion flakes, Garlic powder, Sea Salt, Sweet Basil and simmer.
Fifth: Rinse out bird thoroughly, drain, and put in oval roaster.
Add Semi -Sweet White Wine to Gravy pan, app. 1/2 cup.
Rub entire bird with olive oil & Kitchen Bouquet, add a 1/2 carton of Chicken Broth to roaster and bake @ 350'
I stuffed mine with Herb & Rosemary Chicken Broth stuffing, if you do this too you will need to allow extra cooking time.
The bird is done when internal temp is 170'
This  was a very juicy bird, and was much Loved by my family & friends.
I hope everyone had a Blessed Thanksgiving and shared their Love &Friendship.

Carrot Cake

divadishkitchenscatering.com
Carrot Cake has been around forever, kind of like Aunt Myrtle's Fruit cakes...!
Only difference is everyone will eat this cake.

Being a Chef I decided to change this old time favorite up a bit.
Here is how I improved it for my tastes and hopefully yours.

First I added 1/4 cup more sweet raisins.
Then a 1/2 cup more of sweet organic carrots.
Added a little more moisture to batter.

Baked a tad longer @ 350' 
When cooled I made a Almond fudge Icing to drizzle over the entire cake.
Sprinkled Coconut over that.
Finally I added crushed Chocolate cookie crumbs.

Now this cake is in my Hall of Fame Favorites.
With this Saturday being Small Business Owners Day why not order one of these for your 
Sweet heart , or Family.
