Happy belated Valentine's Day everyone!
I really, really wanted to do a quick post last Monday just to let you guys know how wonderful you are, but busy life got in the way as usual :( I always feel so bad when I don't post for four or five days! But enough of my whining and on to the food!!!!
I celebrated the day of love with a chocolate cherry smoothie (after all, it wouldn't be Valentine's day without some chocolate!). The smoothie was pretty tasty, but the cup that I used made it 10x better!!!

I bought the mug a few weeks ago and was storing it in the cupboard until the special day!
Now what's this about pizza????? Well, last Sunday, I was craving some pizza, and my craving was easily satisfied with the following amazingness (and I think the cheeze would also be a great dip for chips/raw veggies or a sauce for broccoli!)
Quick Pesto Pizza
For the cheeze:
1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
2 tablespoon greek yogurt
1/2 teaspoon low-sodium miso
Splash of water
1 tablespoon canned green chiles
For the pizza:
1 tortilla (I used a brown rice tortilla)
2 tablespoon pesto
1 cup fresh spinach
1 cup chopped broccoli
About 3/4 cup water
Directions:
For the cheeze: Combine all the ingredients until smooth. The result should look something like this:

For the pizza: Combine the spinach, broccoli, and water together in a small pot and simmer until bright green and tender. Drain off the water. Spread the pesto on the tortilla and then top with the veggies and cheeze. Place in an oven set on broil and broil for 3-4 minutes are until the tortilla edges are crispy (but not black - trust me, it goes quickly!)

I so, so loved this!!! I normally don't like thin crust pizza, but that sure wasn't the case here!

And with a smile....
There we go!! Thanks so much mom! It won't last long (I may or may no have already eaten 1/4 of the jar ;)
And I got a few requests to do a post on how to grow an avocado tree! That's such a great idea, and I'm definitely going to work on it! It should be a lot of fun!
Well, I'm off for a girls night with my mom! Talk to you guys later :)
