Pre-Summer BBQ Party

My friend decided to have a pre-summer BBQ at her place. She was telling me about the food she wanted to make. She had hot dogs, Kelbasa, pesto shrimp skewers, mushroom skewers, sausage and peppers, grilled pizza, and cranberry-white chocolate oatmeal cookies. For dinner we made hamburgers with cheese and roasted pepper mayo and for dessert we had dark and white chocolate and peanut butter drizzled bananna slices. All the food was delicious. I especially liked making the grilled pizzas with pita bread and tortillas. The torillas gave a nicer crispier crust. There were toppings---tomato sauce, fresh mozarella, cheddar cheese, basil, caramelized onions, tomatoes, feta cheese, artichokes, and olives. I think the grilled pizzas is going to become a staple food we do at BBQs. So easy to make and people can put what they like. I made a tortilla like calzone to hold my toppings of mozarella, tomatoes, olives, and basil.

It was a nice day--a little cold but glad no rain. There were about 12 people that came. A good way to bring people together to just hang out, eat great food, and enjoy the beginning of summer to come. Hopefully more BBQs and delicious food to come.
