OK, I'm a little disappointed. Maybe a lot disappointed.
Some of you may remember - I don't know, all two or three of you that read my blog - that I entered the Pillsbury Bake-off Contest last year. Here is the post about it if you don't remember.
Out of curiosity, I went on to the Pillsbury site tonight to see who had won the contest. This is the winning recipe. Really? Really? It seems this contest has become more of "how can you super simply use our products", rather than how good are your kitchen skills. I don't know - you tell me - what do you think of this winning recipe?
By the way, the recipe I submitted was for Thai Chicken Pizza, with a homemade sauce on a refrigerated pizza crust from Pillsbury, which was one of the requirements - that I use at least one of their products in my recipe. I actually used two qualifying products - the pizza crust and the peanut butter. Would you like to try a losing recipe? Here is mine, although not in such great detail as the one I had to submit for the contest. But you can get the idea.
Meegan's Peanut Sauce
1/2 c. crunchy peanut butter
2 T. soy sauce
1 t. white sugar
1 clove garlic, minced
1-2 t. dried pepper flakes
1/2 c water
In a small pan, stir together peanut butter, soy sauce, sugar, garlic and pepper flakes until well mixed. Gradually stir in water until texture is smooth and creamy. Cook over medium heat until slightly bubbly.
For the pizza, spread 1/2 of sauce on a pizza crust. Put on a layer of cooked and chopped chicken. Arrange assorted veggies - my favorites are julienned carrots, red onions, and chopped broccoli. Pour remaining sauce over chicken and veggies, and sprinkle with a mixture of feta cheese and mozzarella cheese. Bake in oven according to pizza crust directions.
Enjoy - we love it!
