1/4 cup Italian parsley — coarsely chopped
5 cloves garlic — minced or pressed
3 roma tomato — coarsely chopped
3/4 cup romano cheese — shredded
1/2 pound linguine

sized pieces. Drain pasta well and toss with several drizzles of olive oil,
to taste, and cheese. Add garlic and herbs and toss well. Add chicken,
eggplant, tomatoes, olives and green onions (if used) and toss again. NOTE:
This must be done quickly, so pasta stays hot, and cheese melts.
Season to taste with s p, and serve with more cheese if desired.
I like this with the olives and green onions, Patty is a purist, and thinks
that it complicates the dish unnecessarily.

Title: Pizza Crust
Categories: Bread, Pizza, FP
Yield: 8 servings

3 c Flour
1/2 c Yellow cornmeal
1 pk Active dry yeast
1 tb Sugar
1/2 ts Salt
1 c -Water, cool
2 tb Olive oil

Recipe by: the California Culinary Academy Preparation Time: 1:30

1 . In a food processor fitted with a steel blade, process flour, cornmeal,
yeast, sugar, and salt just to blend.

2. With motor running, add water in a steady stream. Process until mixture
comes away from sides of work bowl. Process 30 seconds to knead dough. If
dough is sticky, add more flour and process 30 to 60 seconds longer. Dough
should feel tacky, smooth, elastic, and warm but not hot.

3. Remove dough from processor and shape into ball. Place ball in an oiled
bowl, turn to coat it with oil, and cover with plastic wrap or a damp
towel. Let dough rise until doubled in bulk, 30 to 60 minutes.

4. Punch dough down and divide it in half. Fit each piece into a 12-inch
pizza pan. Spread each with toppings of your choice.

Makes two 12-inch pizzas.

Notes – add fresh vegetables, bits of ham, grated cheese — whatever sounds
good — to make a gourmet pizza.

1/2 lb Ground pork 1/4 c Catsup
1 c Old-fashioned oats; uncooked

Preheat oven to moderate (375 degrees). Line jelly-roll pan with
aluminum foil.

Saute onion in oil in large skillet over medium heat 3 minutes. Add
red pepper, garlic, basil, and thyme, saute 5 minutes.

Combine beef, pork, oats, egg, whites, mozzarella, Parmesan, parsley,
optional salt, and pepper in large bowl. Add vegetable mixture.

Bake in moderate oven (375 degrees) for 30 minutes. Brush loaf with

Judi’s Notes: I would bake this meat loaf in a loaf pan due to
possible grease escaping from the jelly roll pan. I would also spoon
off some of the fat from the loaf after 30 minutes.
