Peanut has been on a bit of an anti-red-sauce rampage lately. Spaghetti? Not with red marinara. Pizza? Not with red pizza sauce. Enchiladas? Not with red enchilada sauce. See the pattern?

She’s three, it’ll pass. In the mean time, it’s given us a reason to look for some new recipes in place of some our favorite stand by meals. Last night’s test run was a BLT pizza. Not creative or new – we’ve ordered it numerous times before, we’ve just never thought of making it at home.

We basically followed the recipe found at food.com but used ranch salad dressing on half the pizza instead of the mayo sauce given in the recipe to see which the kiddos preferred. If Peanut is on an anti-red-sauce rampage, she’s also on a pro-ranch bender. (I think most parents can relate.) So trying the ranch dressing seemed like a prefect fit.

Overall, it was a hit – even with Peanut. And for how simple it was to make, it tasted (surprisingly) good. As far as the ranch vs mayo comparison… the ranch was quicker and preferred by the kiddos. Something to keep in mind for next time.
