I know it isn’t Friday, but pizza and beer were on the menu tonight.
The beer traveled all the way from Minnesota, courtesy of my aunt + uncle.
… while the pizza featured local chevre cheese and a freshly-made crust from a [Bay Area] farmers’ market.
All in all: local basil pesto, caramelized onion + mushrooms, chevre + parm
plus a harvest salad of organic lettuce, apple, pear, feta, dried cranberries, toasted walnuts, olive oil + balsamic.
Side Note: I am [used to be?] a mushroom-hater. There are a million other things I could have topped the pizza with, but I’m trying to acquire a taste for mushrooms. Mushrooms seem like something a foodie should like. I gobbled up my pizza no problem; I guess they’re growing on me.
Is there a food you like now that you used to dislike?

I have plans to go for a run again in the a.m… hope my knee cooperates. Are y’all getting excited for Thanksgiving? I’m ready to get my bake on!
Ta ta for now…

I used to not like garlic bread, but now I looove it! I like anything garlic (good thing I have a husband who likes it too! :-) )
I used to hate tomatoes, now I can’t get enough of them!
YUM, that pizza looks awesome, and so does the salad…
I used to dislike green beans… I can eat them sauteed in garlic now! ;) I still don’t like beets in anything but fresh juice!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
Mmmmm Summit EPA. I love black ‘n’ tans with Summit. It is the ultimate Minnesota beer.
The harvest salad sounds amazing, too. I love pears, apples, and cranberries in my salads.
Just wanted to thank you again so much for the chocolate and granola giveaway from your blogiversary! You are quite the talented granola maker! I’m in loveeee <3 I gave you a shout out in my post this morning!
P.S. I was the SAME way with mushrooms and onions! Now I love them both! Funny how things change ;)
Happy Thanksgiving!! xo.
Even though I’ve never been really picky, there are numerous foods that I used to dislike but not anymore, mostly some types of vegetables (tomatoes and cauliflower, for example). Now I eat pretty much everything, except some types of meat.
Okay, I’ve got a weird one for you…
Until I was 18, I hated peanut butter. And I mean, passionately hated and didn’t even like to smell it. Now I can’t keep it in the house because I will eat it in spoonfuls out of the jar :)
That pizza looks incredible. I’ve been craving pizza with chevre and figs recently. I hated beets for the longest time; I just started eating them last fall. Now I can’t get enough.
