It's not every day you get to write something for one of your favorite blogs. I'm truly honored to be part of Pizzalicious!!! If you know me, you know that I too have a true love for all things pizza and I'm always excited to see all the different takes and variations on it.

Does anyone remember this? It's one in a sea of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles books geared towards kids in the early 1990s. What's special about this one in particular is that it contains the recipe for the first pizza I ever got to make!!

Splinter's Eazy Pizzas are basically pizzas prepared on English muffins then baked in the oven. They're pretty simple, but there was something pretty great about being able to make your own pizzas as a kid with whatever toppings you could imagine. My sister and I came up with some pretty intense combinations!! It was always fun just to dig through the fridge and experiment.

Here's the link for the recipe: Splinter's Easy Pizzas!

They're still great for snacking or if you don't have a lot of time to cook!! Enjoy!!

I'm looking forward sharing what I find in my pizza travels on here!! I owe a big thank you to Lauren for always being awesome and for bringing me on board. Pizza Power!!!

Tales of Pizza: Part Four: Barquitos

When I was a young student of Richmond Public Schools, we were often served a very weird pizza-like dish called "barquitos" for lunch in the cafeterium (cafeteria+auditorium+gymnasium). I have NEVER been able to find out anything about barquito pizza on the internet. I did however, find out that barquito means little boat in Spanish. A barquito is basically a french bread pizza topped with seasoned taco meat (probably left over lunch the day before) and cheddar cheese. I feel like maybe there was a similar dish with sloppy joe meat but who can really be sure. I have done my best to block out school lunch from my memories. What is this dish? I only ever had it in elementary school. Is it the concoction of a lunch lady? Is it a real food item? What is a barquito?

The Inebriator

Here is my belated entry for the Municipal Waste Pizza Contest! I am so excited that this contest happened. I think it is fucking rad that a band from RVA had a pizza contest. I'm going to try to organize a similar event in Richmond! The Inebriator: Cheesy green toxic waste, pig skin and cheese from a baphomet on a slice of beer presented on pillars of PBR! Or Mozzarella pesto, prosciutto and chevre (goats cheese) on a beer-bread crust Stretch dough and spread out a generous amount of pesto. Top with prosciutto and small dollops of chevre. Bake until cheese is bubbly and crust is golden. Cut into a pentagram. Stack pie pan on 5 cans of ice cold PBR Beer and serve. Dough Ingredients: 1 cup warm (110 degrees to 120 degrees) beer 3 tablespoons olive oil 1 tablespoon sugar 1 1/2 tablespoons coarse salt 1 1/2 ounces fresh yeast 3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting Directions: Combine beer, 2 tablespoons olive oil, sugar, salt, and yeast.

Best Pizza in Richmond

Lots of my pizzalicious friends have been pointing out that Richmond.com currently has a poll on their site for the best pizza in Richmond. However, it has also come to our attention that they have left out several notable pizzerias, namely Jo-Jo's, Sette and Tarantino's. Here on Pizzalicious we have tried to come up with a more comprehensive list of beloved pizzerias in order to find out who is REALLY the best. vote away! Leave a comment with any joints we missed.
