If you could only eat one thing for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Pizza! I love pizza! Real NY style pizza. I could eat pizza every day. I always tell my husband that if we are ever on a game show and they ask him what my favorite food is, that he needs to remember that it’s pizza. I remind him of this small tidbit every time we are eating pizza.
What’s your guilty pleasure/comfort food?
My guilty pleasure is chocolate, milk chocolate. I just need a single bite and everything is all okay again in my world.
What’s the weirdest/craziest thing you’ve ever eaten?
I am a rather picky eater and admit that I have never eaten anything weird. I just can’t do it.
What foods do you avoid at all costs?
Meat, especially ground meat of any kind. It has grossed me out my whole life. I am mostly a vegetarian.
What meal reminds you of your childhood?
Noodles… I was an even pickier eater as a child. So when the family would eat a meal my poor mom had to make me noodles. She mixed them with cream cheese and sugar for a delightfully sweet dish. I ate this all the time as a child.
Share one of your favorite recipes and the story behind it.
I am not a good cook (see my post called Confessions of a Terrible Cook). One of my favorite things to make is a Spinach and Artichoke Dip. My brother had a catering business years ago and shared a recipe with me. I adapted it a little and here is what i came up with…
Ingredients:
2 16 oz cans of artichoke hearts
1 16 oz jar of real Hellman’s mayo
1 package frozen chopped spinach
16 oz grated parmesan cheese
1 sourdough bread bowl
Rinse and Drain artichoke hearts and place in food processor
Add jar of mayo, thawed box of chopped spinach (drain out the excess water) and the cheese. Turn on food processor to mix ingredients for maybe a minute and a half. You can do this longer if you want the dip to be creamier. Put the dip into a hollowed out sourdough bread bowl. Wrap in aluminum foil and place in 350 degree oven for 30 minutes. You must use a bread bowl so that the bread absorbs the oil from the mayo. I have tried this in a glass baking dish and it doesn’t turn out as good. After 30 minutes unwrap the bread and cook for 10 minutes until the top browns slightly. Serve with sourdough bread, raw carrots, celery and tortilla chips. Everyone will think you are a gourmet chef and will ask for the recipe. I promise!

Hi Stacie. I just wanted to stop by and thank you for leaving me a sweet comment at posedperfection.blogspot.com about the Cutesy Clipboard. I am your newest follower.

BTW, I have too many comforts to list here, but I’d have to say bread and chocolate rank pretty high. Have a blessed week. ~Nici
