Dave was kind enough to make this for me the other night. I can't wait to have it again. The best part is that it is super easy and totally guilt free.
Zucchini
Olive Oil
seasoning (we used garlic and herbs)
cut zucchini into spears (about 4) drizzle with oil to lightly coat and then put on some seasons. Cook on BBQ and then eat...but not too fast or it will burn your mouth!

Buca Pizza Angelo: Brookie Style!
I decided that I really liked the Pizza Angelo at Buca Di Beppo and thought that I could reproduce it at home for cheap. It may not be perfect, but it's really good and easy. But don't take my word for it...
Ingredients:
2 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts, cubed and cooked
2 Boxes Jiffy Pizza Crust Mix
1 Jar Ragu Alfredo Sauce
1 Can Whole Corn, drained
2-8 oz. bags Italian Cheese
Lays Potato Chips
*Mushrooms (totally optional, sick!)
Prepare crust as instructed on box. Spread in a greased cookie sheet. (18 x 13)Pre-bake for 3 minutes. In medium bowl, combine chicken, alfredo, and corn; stir together. Spread mixture onto pre-baked crust. Sprinkle cheese ("Italian" cheese is a bag mixture of Mozzarella, Provolone, Parmesan, Romano, Fontina, and Asiago and cheeses.) over mixture. Sprinkle a few potato chips over pizza. Bake at 425 for 18 minutes or until golden on top. Enjoy!
If you do like mushrooms, add as many as you desire to the alfredo mixture prior to spreading it onto the crust.
Pretty kid-friendly... Ethan said, "Yum... this is deee-liscious!". Those who know my son know that he only says this about Krispy Kreme doughnuts.

Just a snack
Banana Sandwiches
A while ago I made banana, peanut butter sandwiches. Madie seemed to like them ok.
all you do is cut the banana in circles, take a slice of banana put a scoop of peanut butter on it and top it off with another slice of banana.

Taco Pie
This is a good one. Since it only requires a few tortillas it is great for those dinners when you have a bit of this and that and not a lot of time.
1 lb. beef
can on beans
can of corn
tomato product (Paste/diced/sauce all work well)
season to taste (taco seasoning is great)
Be creative and add what you have and like-I am trying enchilada sauce next time.
brown beef, add in everything else. It should make thick stew.
about 2 cups shredded cheese
3-4 tortillas
In a cake pan about the same size as your tortillas put a tortilla done first. Spread about 1 cup of stew mixture sprinkle some cheese. continue to layer tortilla, stew and cheese until you reach the top. Making sure that there is enough cheese to cover the top.
Bake at 375 for about 15-20 minutes or until cheese is melted on top. Let sit a few minutes. Cut like a pie. Serve with sour cream and salsa if you want and have.

Camper Stew
2 cans of Baked Beans (we like Bushes Baked beans, the bigger can)
1 small bag of frozen corn or a can of corn.
1 pkg of hotdogs sliced up
Put it all in one pot. Heat it up. Eat it up
You don't have to follow the same amounts I have listed. If you don't like corn, don't add it. If you don't want as many beans, use less cans if you want more...add more. This is one of those yummy and super easy dinners that you can't mess up.
