Truffled Goat Cheese & Arugula Pizza with Caramelized Mushrooms | SavorwithJennifer.com

I read about food a lot.  By a lot, I mean that when I open Facebook, my feed is like 90% food related.  I get excited when there is a brand new cookbook in my library’s new release section.  Half the apps on my phone are food related.  You get the point.  So when I stumbled across an article about top searches in Pinterest that mentioned naan pizza, I was like ‘Oooohhh, that sounds yummy!  Now I know what we are having for dinner tonight!’  Sort of random, but based on some of the ingredients I had on hand, that’s the inspiration behind this crazy good, Truffled Goat Cheese & Arugula Pizza with Caramelized Mushrooms.

Oven Roasted Asparagus

Excellence in simplicity!  Oven Roasted Asparagus shows off these tender, crisp spears to perfection!

Easy Oven Roasted Asparagus

While Asparagus is available year round, Spring is when it is best!  The flavor is bright and clean with earthy undertones and is very mild when the spears are fresh.

One of my favorite ways to prepare vegetables is to roast them.  The flavor and texture of vegetables roasted in the oven or on the grill may surprise even a picky eater.  The combinations are endless like Fresh Roasted Green Beans with Bacon and Shallots, Roasted Brussels Spouts, and even Pumpkin with Crispy Sage and Brown Butter.  Best part, the preparation is so incredibly simple!  And have you tried more non-traditional roasted vegetable choices like Roasted Butternut Squash or Roasted Sweet Mashed Potatoes?  I’m telling you, Roasting can elevate and improve on a vegetable’s taste and texture in the most unexpected and delightful ways!  Don’t be surprised if you discover a new favorite!

Chicken Satay – It’s What’s For Dinner!

Dinner you say?  Isn’t Chicken Satay an appetizer at a Thai restaurant?

Why, yes.  Yes it is.  It’s also one of my husband’s favorite dishes!  When asked what he would like for his birthday meal, this has been his answer two years running.  So how do you have your favorite appetizer for dinner?  You turn it into an entree!

Satay is simply a grilled, marinated meat that is very common through out southeast Asia.  It is usually served on a skewer with a peanut dipping sauce and sometimes a cucumber and onion salad.

What makes it so special is that it just explodes with complementary flavors and textures.  The meat is first marinated in a coconut and curry mixture and then grilled to perfection.  The peanut sauce is creamy and slightly sweet with a hint of salty heat and a light crunch.  The cool texture of the cucumbers and onions adds a crunchy bite of sweet heat that enhances every mouthful.
