Sure, tomorrow is March 25th and yup we are expecting snow, again! I am so over it, I just want warm weather, eating outside and more meals like this! The concept is simple, the ingredient list short, the flavors phenomenal! Saturday late afternoon, we actually did luck out and we were able to enjoy dinner on the deck as the sun was beginning to set. This Pear, Arugula, Prosciutto & Herb Cheese Tortilla Pizza was absolute perfection along with a glass of chilled Chardonnay and the warmth of the sun! 

The flavors all compliment each other and the different textures keep it interesting! Crisp tortilla slathered with herb cheese {I used Rondele by President Light Garlic & Herbs Cheese}, topped with sweet pear and baked on a pizza stone until golden. To finish this is simple pizza off I added a mound of arugula, bits of crisp prosciutto, a drizzle of olive oil and some fresh cracked pepper. As we sat outside and I sipped my wine, while the boys bounced around yelling that this was the best day ever and I turned to Steve and said, “I’m pretending we’re in Italy”.

I need more of these days, the snow must stop the sun needs to shine, I need to hear birds chirp, picnics at the park and trips to the beach followed by Hoffmans {Jersey people, this is the best ice cream ever!}. I’m done with feeling the need to cook giant pots of soups and stews to warm us on the frigid days. I want the whip out the grill, I want bright colored meals… I want more meals just like this Pear, Arugula, Prosciutto & Herb Cheese Tortilla Pizza!! For now, i’ll keep pretending.
