How this all got started--1st ingredient sun dried tomatoes - Menu item #1

Venture back in time with us, as we reminisce about the first experimental kitchen.....it all started with a simple question....what came you make with sun dried tomatoes???  The obvious answer, of course, is pizza.  But let's make it a bit more interesting....and designer diner was started.....

So taking one ingredient, in this case, sun dried tomatoes, we created a dining masterpiece.  On a fresh pizza dough (not a boboli, or premade crust), we spread the dough with pesto on half and sun dried tomato pesto on the other half. Then we started adding the toppings.....fresh sliced mushrooms, grilled chicken, artichokes, onions, black olives and of course, the sun dried tomatoes.....Must not forget the cheese!  Grated fresh parmesan and a combination of asiago, fontina and provolone.  Baked until bubbly, we supremely enjoyed our first creative invention.  We hope you enjoy reading (and experimenting) as much as we enjoyed creating/eating.
