EDF: The Pizza


A great EDF day. Breakfast was a yummy egg sandwich with green onions, red pepper and feta.  I had to work today and was late in getting home, so I was stressed about what I would make for dinner. Usually, at this point in the day, I am hungry, cranky and tired -- and all too willing to grab takeout or go out. 

Tonight, however, my husband had a surprise for me: he made pizza dough! 

He combined flour, water and an egg. No measuring ingredients. "Experience is involved," he said, mysteriously. I think that being Italian also has something to do with it.

He had made a sardine-infused tomato sauce for some pasta the other day, so he used that as the pizza sauce. Then topped the pizza with my favorite things (which we almost always have in our fridge): parmesan cheese and kalamata olives.  

The result? Wow. Wow. The crust was thin, crackly and amazingly light. The chianti was excellent, too. A great start to the week.
