Focaccia Sandwich

Great for parties!!!

Take 2 pizza dough balls and put them together. 
Drizzle olive oil on pizza pan and place pizza on pan.
Drizzle olive oil on top, add onions, Rosemary, and sea salt.
Place another pizza pan on top to cover the focaccia.
Cook at 450 degrees (or 425) for about 10-20 min. 

Let cool.  

With big knife, cut in half. Add condiments, cold cuts, marinated veggies, etc.
Wrap it up until ready to serve. 

I like to cut it up and put a skewer right in the middle for easy grabbing!

Enjoy!

Anne-Marie's Pumpkin Soup


1 tablespoon oil
½ small pumpkin (equivalent of one large Ziploc freezer bag full), small cubes
1 onion, diced
1 big potato, cubed
1 ½ cup chicken broth
1 ½ cups milk
2 tbsp Amaretto (can put Brandy instead)
Pinch nutmeg
Salt and pepper to taste
If it’s not strong enough (flavorless) add chicken broth powder to taste
Sour cream

Heat up oil in soup pan. Fry pumpkin, onions and potatoes at low heat for about 5 minutes. Add chicken broth (has to cover ¾ of vegetables – could add more broth) and bring to a boil. Boil it for 10 minutes or until everything is soft. Add rest of ingredients and let simmer for 5 minutes. Puree and serve. Add a dab of sour cream onto the soup.


* I also put some chili powder, and a clove of garlic.
