Steak and Potato Pizza



The best thing about summer is being able to use the grill so the kitchen doesn't get too warm.  And I love that I can make pizza on the grill now.  This is a pizza recipe inspired by one that I had many years ago.  I hope you like it!

Ingredients

12" premade pizza crust
6 ounces chopped bison steak
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1 medium potato thinly sliced
1/2 cup BBQ sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Saute the steak and onion together in a pan. Add potatoes and cook until they are tender (time will depend on how thick they are).
Spread the BBQ sauce evenly over the crust, cover with the potatoes and steak and top with the cheese.
Etiher cook in a 425 oven for about 15 minutes or cook on the grill until cheese is golden.

Slow Cooker Coconut Curry Chicken

Like I said the other day, I love slow cooker recipes.  On days like today when I have errands and chores and homework to get done, it's a little reassuring to know that I'm not going to have to worry about making dinner.  Tonight's experiement was Chicken Coconet Curry, though you couldn't really taste the coconut much.  Next time I think I'll sprinkle a little shredded coconut on top of it and maybe some green onions for color.

Ingredients

2 chicken breasts, chopped
2 medium potatoes, chopped
1/2 large onion, chopped
1/2 cup shredded carrots
1 large red pepper, chopped
3 large green onions (scallions), chopped
1 can light coconut milk
2 tablespoons chili garlic sauce
3 cloves garlic, minced
4 tablespoons curry powder

Directions

Place all of the ingredients in a slow cooker and cook on low for six to eight hours. Serve over rice (not included in nutritional info).

Roasted Potatoes, Peppers and Sausage

Today's dinner is going to be Roasted Potatoes, Peppers and Sausage.  There's only a little oil in it with some herbs for yummy flavor, plus it's made with turkey sausage, all of which helps make it healthier for you. 

Ingredients

3 large potatoes, cut into bite sized pieces

1 large onion, chopped into bite sized pieces

2 large red peppers, chopped

2 teaspoons olive oil

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary

3 cloves of garlic, minced

1 13 ounce package of smoked turkey sausage, chopped into bite sized pieces

Directions

Preheat oven to 350.
Toss the potatoes, onion and peppers in a large bowl with the oil, rosemary and garlic until everything is evenly coated. Place on a greased baking sheet and cook for 15 minutes, stirring once to make sure nothing sticks to the pan.
Add the sausage to the pan and return to the oven, cooking for an additional 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are well cooked. Stir once or twice to make nothing sticks to the pan.
