Here's an impressive but everyly so easy to make recipe from Miss Amber

Toasted Pizza Sub

1 loaf french bread
pepperoni
black olives
Canadian bacon
mozzarella
pizza sauce

*add any other toppings you enjoy the possibilities are endless!

Cut the loaf of french bread in half like you would for a subsandwhich. Hollow out both halves. Spread your favorite sauce on top and bottom halves. Then start to layer meat,vegi,cheese,sauce. I do this only on the bottom half fill it up and make sure your final layer is cheese on top.

For the top half I layer only cheese and vegi's. Pop in oven at 350 side by side and cook til bubbly and melty, put them together cut and serve!

Here it is! The awarding winning recipe. Miss Ryan

Jalapeno Cream Stuffed Tomatoes


1 cup cream cheese

1 cup sour cream

1 cup grated jack cheese

1/2 t minced garlic

6-8 roasted jalapenos- chopped with seeds and veins removed

1 egg


*Mix the above with a hand mixer. Bake in greased 9x9 pan at 350 degrees for 12 or until bubbly.

* In the meantime cut cherry tomatoes in half and remove seeds. A melon baller works great. Take a thin slice off the bottom so the tomatoes will sit on end.

* Stuff tomatoes with jalapeno creme and sprinkle with mix of:

3 T breadcrumbs

3 T grated cojita or parmesan cheese

1 T butter


* Place stuffed tomatos in baking dish or on cookie sheet and broil until tops are just golden.





**Disclaimer** This is not the exact recipe I used in AZ for two reasons. 1- I made it up as I went and didn't write it down and 2- I used roma tomatoes because the cherry tomatoes had moved on to a life as salsa when I got back to the house.
