dinner tonight

I'd been in the mood for a Philly cheese steak sub. But I didn't have the right kind of bread.

I did, however, recently purchase naan. So I decided to make a naan-style Philly cheesesteak pizza.

I sauteed the onions, bell pepper & mushrooms with a clove of minced garlic; slices of deli roast beef followed. I lined the naan with thin slices of pecorino & shredded mozzarella (as I didn't have Provolone), then topped it with the beef & pepper mixture. I popped that in a 400-degree oven for a few minutes, then added slices of fresh mozzarella on top; back into the oven for a few minutes more, until the cheese melted.

Now it's looking all gooey & cheesy & onion-peppery. I'm letting it cool a bit. Hope it turns out.

Edit: It's a good thing the only other thing I had to eat today was yogurt for breakfast. Wow, is this rich. I can just look at it & gain five pounds.

The taste is pretty good, but it's missing . . . something. Maybe some herbs, like dried oregano. Or some tang, a splash of vinegar. Something. Still pretty tasty.

2nd edit: Worcestershire sauce! That would be the thing to try.

(no subject)

I'm still recovering from how crack-delicious my dinner tonight is/has been. Anyway.
