Breakfast Pizza
I have fond memories of my four sons, who are all grown up and married now, as little boys running in to give me breakfast in bed on Mother’s Day. Their excited smiling faces, filled with the anticipation of my reaction, are etched in my memory. I will always remember one Mother’s Day in particular when they ran in with their adorable homemade cards. They had pasted beautiful cut-out hearts all over their cards professing their love. Unfortunately, they got a bit confused with all the hearts that they mistakenly wrote “Happy Valentine’s Day” inside! Too funny….we still laugh about it to this day….well, actually I haven’t let them forget it! But I know they love me on Mother’s Day, Valentine’s Day and every day! And now I am blessed to be the grandma of my five little loves and my Mother’s Day is bursting with love and happiness!
One of my favorite parts of Mother’s Day is breakfast in bed and a Smoked Mozzarella & Prosciutto Breakfast Pizza is an easy way for dad and the kids to make you your special meal. So easy peasy, even dad can get this done with the kids! Enjoy breakfast in bed! Happy Mother’s Day!
Pizza Recipes
Love pizza as much as I do? Be sure to try Grilled Prosciutto, Parmesan and Arugula Salad Pizza, a grilled pizza topped with a bed of baby arugula greens lightly tossed in a white balsamic vinaigrette dressing. Caprese, the beloved combination of mozzarella, tomato and basil with balsamic vinegar, becomes a Meatless Monday meal or fabulous appetizer as Grilled Pesto Caprese Naan Pizza! And if you’re craving a taste of italy then Grilled Pesto Pizza with pesto, asiago cheese, sundried tomatoes, artichoke hearts, fresh tomatoes and bacon is definitely for you! And did you know that you can have your spaghetti and meatballs and eat your pizza too with Deep Dish Spaghetti & Meatball Pizza? And I would be remiss if I didn’t mention Buffalo Ranch Chicken Pizza! Combining the flavors of Ranch and Buffalo, this pizza will certainly become a go-to favorite. So many pizzas, so little time!
