Mediterranean Meatloaf pizza??

Mediterranean Meatloaf pizza?? Meatloaf Nachos? Deconstructed meatloaf? Not really sure what to call it... my family likes "build your own" meals so this is what happens when the ingredients are just put on the table.  I made a simple meatloaf (meat, egg, breadcrumb) and added sundried tomato, feta, fresh chopped basil, oregano and garlic into the mix.  Fried Pitas and served with hummus, arugula, a fresh veggie mix  (cucumber, tomato, onion, olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper) and sprinkled feta all over top.

caprese salad

Fresh basil, fresh motz, tomato, olive oil, salt and pepper......What say you? Lemon or no? (this one yes)

Boddingtons Pub Ale

This beer has a nitrogen ball in the can like a Guinness creating a head. Fun! THANKS to whoever left it in my cooler after a cookout party! :) Would totally buy this.

Patriotic Quiche!

Another Blue Apron meal. Arugula salad (only thing I changes is that I added crutons).  The quice was red (red onion), white (ricotta) and blue (blue potato) for the forth of July.  Teenager loved it, had good flavor but the blue potato was not super appealing color wise (re:grey is not a good food color).  I would totally make again with russet or yukon gold potato.

Chestnut Spread

Chestnut spread (umm, like it sounds) or "crème de marrons" is a French classic made of chestnuts, confectionery syrup, sugar and vanilla.  Tastes like slightly thicker grainier honey. We tried it alone and on shortbread.  Interesting but I wouldn't seek it out. Suggestions are to eat on crepes or with ice cream.
