"Sprucing" up dinner

I love to cook. I want to cook... most of the time. My biggest barriers are energy, creativity and talent. Not to say I'm not a good cook, but I don't have the natural ability to just throw things together and have it turn out well.

On the days where I'm hungry as fuck and just WANTSFOODSNOW! such as tonight, sprucing up box meals (in this case pizza) softens the blow to both my wallet and boost my ego (look there's veggies).

Tonight I bring you pizza: a study of bad and good. I happen to have some red peppers, onion, garlic, tomato, cheese and peps (or pepperoni to some of you). Takes a regular old kinda boring box pizza and turns it into something I can pretend is healthy and gourmet. Lovely.

This does not show the extra cheese that I put on, because I'm an idiot and forgot to put the cheese on before it went into the oven.

Additional bonus: the leftover veggies, if any, make for a great appetizer.

Maybe it doesn't taste as gourmet as a fancy gourmet pizza place, but hey, it tastes better than if all this crap wasn't on it.

*Note: garlic makes for some KICKIN breath, so don't add if you want to get it on with a new person.*
