Experimentation

Sometimes I just have no idea what to cook for dinner and I really don't want to just make spaghetti. (my solution to not knowing what to make for dinner)

Tonight the kids and I went to the fridge and found LOTS of little containers of things that weren't enough to really use in anything. Since I hate wasting such yummy ingredients we decided to put it all together.  We had a Panini-Themed Party the other day, and we just had little bits of stuff leftover. 

Here is what we came up with.....

Layer of raw sliced potatoes, lightly salted
Can of Rotel
Black Olives
Tiny bit of Parmesan, Artichoke Hearts, and Spinach
Roasted Red Peppers
Leftover Dark Meat from our Turkey (chopped)
15 Whole Roasted Garlic Cloves
Spread a container of Savory Garlic Philadelphia Cooking Sauce
Layered 5 Italian Sausage Links

Last but not least.....placed a layer of pizza dough on top with some butter and seasonings spread on top.

Baked at 350 degrees for an hour.

It's not necessarily anything to brag about, but it's the fact that experimenting with ingredients can be fun!  AND since the kids helped throw it all together….they liked it.
