A Package and Roasted Veggie Pizza

When I walked in the door and saw a big brown box on the coffee table, I immediately locked eyes with Ryan and asked, “Is that for meee?”

Considering I was expecting a package of various foodie goods, I was already on my way to grab a pair of scissors to rip that baby open when he said “Yep!”

Getting a package in the mail is one of my very favorite things in life. I think that’s why I continue to shop online even when I live less than five minutes from a mall and less than  15 minutes from a mall that’s actually decent. It’s like Christmas morning everytime I pull up to my apartment and see a glistening (albeit dull and brown) package waiting for me.   

Aside from my package, I also received two free samples (my other favorite thing to get in the mail) from Fiber One and Bear Naked granola to add to my goodies from Netrition.com (Carba Nada pasta, Joseph’s pitas and lavash bread and Baskin Robbins sugar-free mint chocolate chip hard candy).

After receiving Joseph’s lavash in the mail, I decided I’d make a roasted vegetable pizza for dinner using leftover roasted veggies. I began chopping the leftover vegetables and steaming some broccoli while I crisped the lavash in the oven.

Once the lavash was slightly crisp, I took it out of the oven and topped it with marinara sauce (every last bit that I had remaining).

I then spread the colorful veggies all over the lavash.

I sprinkled lots and lots of MontChevre goat cheese over the veggies to add a flavor punch.

After baking for less than 10 minutes, the goat cheese melted slightly and the smell of the lavash and roasted veggies began to fill the apartment. I was gettin’ hungry!

Though the goat cheese really made the pizza for me, the bright roasted veggies added a healthy and tasty dimension to the meal.

I will definitely be makin’ this bad boy again!
