This roasted tomato flat bread pizza is simple and delicious with the addition of sherry to the tomatoes. Paired with goat cheese, it’s a savory winner.
Happy hump day! You know what that means right? Some WIAW action.

On to my favorite meal of the day…
Breakfast! I’m not sure if it’s because of the food, the cup of coffee or the fact that I start my morning with both in front of the computer reading all my fav blogs. Actually, it’s probably all of those things combined.
You know how some nights you go to bed knowing exactly what you want in the morning? This was one of those times. Ashley’s banana cornbread cake is a staple in my breakfast line up. It’s fun, delicious, nutritious and the best part…microwavable. Topped with some almond butter, jam, blueberries and maple syrup you could totally fool someone into thinking this was a “weekend” breakfast and not something you whipped up in 5 minutes.
I ran to the produce store at lunch and saw cherry tomatoes for 2 pints/$1.99. Steal! I have no idea how I remembered this, but I immediately thought of a Rachael Ray recipe for sherry roasted tomatoes that I made the first year we were married in Florida. They must’ve been pretty good if they lasted in my memory for the past 4+ years, right?
As I was putting away the groceries I saw pita bread and goat cheese and lunch was devised.
Sherry roasted tomato flat bread pizza.
One word: yum.
Two more words: make this.
A little 3pm snack-age.
Yes, I’m too lazy to stir my peanut butter properly so it looks rather unappetizing. Sorry, I’m not sorry.
Dinner was delicious, albeit random. Wild Alaskan king salmon, (none of that nasty farm raised crap over here! It’s worth the extra $ for the good stuff) more tomatoes, some garlic sautéed spinach and a wheatberry + green onion + feta salad I made yesterday because I was sick of looking at the plastic bag of 1/2 cup of wheatberries left in my pantry.
Of course no day is complete without dessert, right? Yesterday happened to be one of these, which you’ll have to wait until tomorrow for the recipe. <Insert evil cackle here>
Any guesses? I’ll give you a hint…a can of Libby’s was hurt in the making of them.
If you can’t take the suspense, go check out these pumpkin chocolate chip cookies or these pumpkin brownies.
They’re pretty good substitutes.

In honor of WIAW, what’s the best thing you ate yesterday?
Yummy eats! Loving the flatbread pizza! :)
WIAW makes me really jealous of Ulysses. If I showed this to Mike he’d jump ship. I don’t cook anything anywhere near this good!
That pizza looks freaking delicious!
Question: Would you like to become my personal chef?
haha, it’s only my dream job ;)
Please hop on a plane or in a car with your parents…. come to mee! and bring that pizza! =) haha!
Happy WIAW love!
1. loving the PBJ action on your bfast ‘cake.
2. I’m a fan of rachael ray’s recipes… but oh my gosh, she reeaaally gets on my nerves.
seriously, the “yumm-o” comments make me want to punch the screen!
I am not a big fan of watching Rachel Ray but I love a lot of her recipes. One of my favorites are Greek burgers with spinach and feta mixed in.
I would like to eat everything that you ate yesterday- and will definitely have to try the breakfast asap!
I love cornbread sooo much- and am thinking that the cornbread cake could be a nice compliment to a crockpot full of pumpkin chili… (I know what I’m making this weekend!)
Ohh, definitely! Check out Ashley’s site b/c she has a cornbread cake w/o the banana that would probably be even better with the chili combo :)
All your eats look de-licious! And beautifully photographed, too :-) I don’t know Rachel Ray, but I tend to be less interested in the mega-stars when it comes to health and nutrition…I”m slightly worried they’ve sold out and I can’t trust them. :-)
I have some wild Alaskan salmon in my WIAW post, too! Born and raised in BC, I can’t stand the farmed stuff. At all. I can’t believe it’s so popular here in California. Yuck! We went to Costco and bought a couple sides of wild coho, then steamed them in a foil packet on the bbq. Yummm.
I’ve been meaning to tell you Gina that I’ve been enjoying your food photography/styling for your posted recipes. Having a few fresh ingredients in the background really does somehow make things look more enticing! Your flatbread pizza looks super-tasty, and I’m not even a huge fan of cherry tomatoes!
Wild is the way to go. I’ve seen farmed fish areas and gross is the only word that comes to mind!
Thanks for the photo compliments. I have a bit too much fun playing with my food ;)
That’s my ideal afternoon snack!
I can’t stand Rachel Ray but I’m not sure I have a compelling argument to back that up. It’s just a vibe.
Your little chocolate square is so cute.
Breakfast is by far my most favorite meal of the day as well and that looks AWESOME. I think I’d say that was the best thing I ate yesterday by far.
As for Rachael Ray…I think I tend to dislike her more than like her…but I definitely wouldn’t say I hate her.
Happy WIAW!!! Everything looks incredible, I’m anxiously awaiting the dessert recipe :)
That brownie whatever-it-is looks fantastic. Chocolate and pumpkin are such a great combo.
I like Rachel Ray, but the only thing that annoys me about her is when she says “EVOO” and then follows it up “extra virgin olive oil.” Why use the acronym if you’re just going to say it anyway?
I want the pizza and brownies!! YUM!
Your pizza looks so fresh and delicious!!! Thanks for sharing the recipe. I love cherry tomatoes, need to have more before winter and it’s not tomato season :(
your dessert looks right up my alley..i am guessing pumpkin + oats + other goodies…yum
and i love roasted tomatoes and cooking sherry….I ADORE it!!
are you reading the post I’m currently writing?! you may be on to something… ;)
no but i made these

I’ve never seen that flavor of Ghirardelli before. It looks fab!
