old school pizza and corn

It has been a few days since I have posted but that does not mean I have not been cooking up some good stuff :o)  Just about everything on last week's menu was a hit!  I say just about everything because I had a bit of a flop with the pizza stuffed portabellas :-/  It was not too bad but I don't think I will be making them again.  They were a bit too messy and too juicy.  The taste was OK but Sean and I both agreed the texture and sloppy factor was not that great.  They tasted better the next day when all the juice from the mushroom had kind of drained out.

Tonight is going to be Pizza quesadillas and grilled corn on the cob.
I think this is going to be an easy one so I am not even going to bother with a cooking snack :o)
Very simple ingredients:
whole wheat flour tortillas
onion
olives
cherry tomatoes
green peppers
mushrooms
a few cloves of garlic minced (enough for the sautéing the veggies and grilling the chicken)
shredded mozzarella cheese
freshly grated parmesan cheese
olive oil spray
ground pepper and salt
For the dipping sauce I used some of my homemade marinara sauce
italian grilled chicken (thinly sliced)
**All I did for that was use some italian spices and fresh garlic and grilled them up**

here is all the pizza fix ins 

You can use any pizza toppings you like.  Sean and I usually love a lot of veggies.
Sauté all the veggies up and then assemble the Quesadilla.  I put a small amount of sauce on the actual quesadilla but most of it I use for dipping.  Crisp it up in the pan and it's ready to go!

I chose to do grilled corn on the cob for a side.  Remember when you were in school and they always had pizza and corn?  That was my inspiration :o)
The other day when Sean actually had a day off :o) we went to our favorite craft beer place here, Oak Tree wine and spirits, and found some yummy stuff.  We tried Southern Tier's Oak Aged Unearthy imperial IPA with our dinner tonight :o) Paired very nicely!

I went ahead and had mine but I knew Sean would not be home until late so I didn't assemble his until he got home.  I had it all crisped up and ready on the plate by the time he got out of his uniform and his PJ's on :o)  There is plenty left over so tomorrow he will have another yummy lunch to take with!
