Chicken Bacon Alfredo Pizza

First of all, I know this pizza didn't turn out to be very pretty. Second of all, I had an extra dough ball in my freezer from my whole wheat pizza crust adventure. And third of all, curiosity won me over in trying this recipe.

I didn't take pictures of the process, because, well I'm hoping people already know how to assemble a pizza. The main difference between this one and others is that it uses alfredo sauce instead of tomato sauce. The original recipe also adds mushrooms and onions, but ick.

Yeah...the cheese got super brown. But it's not how it looks, it's how it tastes. And this was pretty good. It wasn't amazing, but it wasn't bad either. I definitely wouldn't call it a fail. I'll give it 3 stars, I'd probably make it again.

Baked Pineapple Coconut Cream Cheese Wontons with Pineapple Sweet and Sour Sauce

Holy long title Batman!! Anyway, I made these yesterday for the Super Bowl. What a game! While I was hoping the Falcons would win, it was an amazing game those last few minutes so I can't really be upset. These wontons turned out to be a lot simpler to make than I expected.

All I did was mix up the filling,

Fill and shape the wontons,

Line them on a baking sheet with a rack so air could flow around them on all sides, and stick them in the oven.

It was a bit time consuming to fill and bake them, but it wasn't difficult. And I only had one pop open during baking, so I'm calling that a win.

The sauce was equally easy. Mix everything up in a saucepan and cook until it thickens. Boom.

I have to say the hardest part of this recipe was probably just finding the wonton wrappers in the grocery store. And finding an oven safe cooling rack to use, but that's a whole other story. (Five stores later...) These could also be fried, but to be honest frying was a bit intimidating. Plus baking is healthier! And the verdict? They're good. Really good. It was a bit disappointing that we couldn't taste the coconut in them though. And personally I think they taste better when they've sat for a while. I liked them more after the trip up to my in laws' place for the game, but they're good warm too. I would like to try to punch up the coconut flavor, but that's really my only complaint. So these are definitely a 4 star treat.
