In honor of Valentine’s Day, I am posting about my love. Pizza! I love creating homemade pizzas with different combinations of toppings. This one is truly a hearty winter pizza using the best seasonal produce.
Oh, and it has pine nuts. I love pine nuts. This pizza has pine nuts. Make it for your love tonight.
Can you tell which side is mine and which side is my other love’s?
Oh and do yourself a favor and buy yourself a bag of pizza dough from your grocery store or local pizza place. It tastes much better than the Pillsbury stuff and much easier than homemade.
