Sunday Supper: Spicy Tomato Soup

Every home cook has their arsenal, mine is making something out of nothing - I am, literally, the Queen of this. Open the fridge, look in and figure it out. I finally got that nasty cold that was going around the restaurant, and on Sunday I woke up with the sniffles and a sore throat. 

Recipe: BLT Pizza

Ingredients: 

12 oz pizza dough, store bought or home made

12 oz of your favorite bacon, crisped and chopped

1/2 pint of cherry tomatoes, quartered

12 oz baby arugula, washed

3/4 cup of Aioli

If you love BLT sandwiches like I do, then you will love this recipe. Its like an open face BLT with just as much mess and almost as easy to cook.

Take your dough with a bit of cornmeal flour and make your desired shape. I like a square shape for more of that crispy crunch on the edges. For this pizza you want to cook the crust all the way through in the oven without any toppings.

Once golden brown spread on the Aoli. You want the dough to cool enough to touch but warm enough to still allow the aoli to be absorbed, much like toast. Then spread out the layers. Arugula, bacon and then the cherry tomatoes. Top with a nice sprinkling of salt and pepper. Cut, serve and enjoy.
