Have you ever had an idea so great that you’re positive that someone else must’ve also had the exact same idea? That happened to me recently when I was walking home from work. Earlier that week I’d finished my Spanakopita but wanted to experiment more. So I came up with an idea for an open-faced [...]

I have been toying with the idea of a breakfast pizza for awhile now and when I saw Bittman’s polenta pizza a few weeks ago, I knew that it might just work as a base for some breakfast action.
At first the idea of a polenta pizza didn’t really intrigue me. I like my pizza crispy [...]
