Another Yum Creation

Aji paste is the bomb! Usually the yellow
one is the best, but this rocks, too.! So versatile.
For those of you who cook, willingly or not, you know it can be hard to think of something different to eat every day. But if you've been doing it for a while, then you also get a general sense of things that might work, or might not. Add into that a sort of craving, and well, you might end up... experimenting.

We all know some experiments are dismal failures. But I had a great one the other night! Hurray! Because that sure as heck is the best, right? Lol

I've been craving pizza lately. Like - any kind of pizza. Frozen ones that I've doctored up, the kind they sell by the slice that's big and greasy, homemade, you name it. I have no idea why, but I have been.

And the other night, well... my mind got to working. I'd bought these pre-made pizza crusts ages ago. They've been around forever, and I was trying to think what to put on them. Aji chicken came to mind (I call it this, but it is by no means unique, I'm sure. Cooked chicken with onions, green peppers, and aji sauce sauteed in a pan for a while). I had some of this frozen, you see. 


So I pulled it out, but it occurred to me that it might not really go with tomato sauce. I looked up a few chicken pizza recipes and boom - here's my thrown together sauce.

It is literally cream of chicken soup mixed with ranch dressing, lol. Thinned it slightly with some milk. Oh yeah, really, haha!


Here's the pizza in the assembly process: crust, sauce, aji chicken, and some chopped tomatoes.



With the cheese added (mozzarella and fiesta blend. It's what I had in the fridge, lol).


Man, did it smell good while it was cooking, let me tell you.

And viola! Here it is! Yummmm...
