No Bake Pizza aka Lazy Night Dinner

So tonight Hubby ditched me to go on a "boys date" to a concert.  I was actually invited, but let's face it, there was no chance of me saying yes.  I mean first, I don't really know who the band is but have vague impressions of a hair band from like the early 90's.  And second, I imagine the venue is some creepy old place with lots of dark and dirty decor which would GLOW if subjected to a scientific black light test.  No thanks.  But I know those boys will have tons of fun!!!  

I seriously considered making myself an awesome pearl couscous salad with zucchini, feta, and heirloom tomatoes.  But decided that simply boiling water was way more effort than I could spare for a night alone in my pajamas.  So this is what took me about 5 minutes, was delicious, and still almost fancy.



Ingredients

  • Sliced rustic bread.  (We have awesome Rosemary bread at the local store.  LOVE!)
  • Goat cheese
  • Roasted red bell peppers
  • Fresh basil

Directions

  1. Slice a piece of bread
  2. Spread your goat cheese on said bread
  3. Chop roasted red peppers into cute little squares and toss them on top.
  4. Chiffonade the basil (I can't stop using that word, or creating the pretty ribbons!) and top your "pizza"
  5. EAT!





Seriously, very pizza-esque without the fuss, without the heat, and without any effort.  It doesn't take any longer than if you made a sad pb&j.  And it's way classier and grown up.  :)
