Yemeni Delight

Some days are serious days. Chloe was much more contemplative and calm than usual. She seemed to be studying everything around her, and not giving up smiles very easily. This is probably all because we skipped her morning nap time in order to go out to breakfast. Not sure it was worth the trade-off, but at least breakfast was great!
We decided to play it safe and stay in for dinner. We made Yemeni Delight Pizza (Andrew said we had to name it). I started reading this cooking blog called Smitten Kitchen and got inspired to make my own pizza creation. I didn't use their recipe, but who uses a recipes for pizza anyway? Holy cow was it good. We were able to use some fun spices, like this Yemeni Spice Rub from Melinda.

The pizza had caramelized red onions, grilled red peppers, Yemeni rubbed grilled chicken and garlic infused olive oil . That was all just stuff from our kitchen we thought would go together and happened to have on hand. We heated our oven hotter than i knew was possible(550) threw the ingredients all on dough from the Moose'sTooth and this delicious creation was ready in about 10 minutes.
We will definitely be adding homemade pizza to our dinner rotations!
