I’m just not happy with how the blogs been looking lately, so I’ve gone back to basics while I work on finding / designing a new look.

Thanks for your patience while I play.  Suggestions, help…always welcome.

I had a whole Little Caesar’s “Hot-N-Ready” pizza for lunch today…ugh…

The only good thing about that is I have pizza on the brain (and heavy in the stomach), so this week’s recipe is a nice, simple homemade pie.  Courtesy of “The Dallas Morning News”

 2 tablespoons cornmeal
1 (10-ounce) can refrigerated pizza crust, uncooked
1 (10 ¾ -ounce) can condensed, zesty tomato soup
3/4 cup marinated sun-dried tomatoes
3/4 cup cooked, crumbled bacon
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1/3 cup parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 425 F. Sprinkle cornmeal on bottom of a pan.  Place pizza crust over cornmeal. Spread soup evenly over crust and arrange tomatoes over soup. Top with bacon, cheddar cheese and parmesan. Bake for 16 to 20 minutes or until crust is lightly browned. Makes 4 servings.

Mega props to the fine folks at sogoodblog.com.  In the spirit of March Madness, they bring us…

That’s right “MEAT MADNESS” and this bracket has got something for everyone. 

Now, the name of this blog is “The Daily Bacon“, so you know who I am taking to win the whole thing.  I see a tough battle against Pulled Pork, but really Bacon should be victorious.

In the other regions, I am calling for Turkey to beat Chicken in the Poultry Region, I am intrigued about the Tuna / Shrimp and the Salmon / Crab match ups in the Fish Region (but I think the higher seeds prevail) and in “Red” Meat…I think Corned Beef battles Steak for that spot in the final four.

What do you think?  Play along starting Wednesday at sogoodblog.com.

So brilliant, wish I thought of it!
