The Perfect Outdoor Pizza Party! May 21, 2015 | Ever since we re-vamped our back deck into a space that we love, all we want to do is dine al fresco and enjoy this beautiful spring weather. When I saw this outdoor pizza oven from World Market, I knew that it must come home with us. We already love to make pizza as a family…Landry enjoys helping with the toppings and loves to watch them cook in the oven, so what better way to celebrate summer than to have an outdoor pizza party. After putting this together, I’ve fallen in love with the idea of hosting neighborhood pizza parties. Grab some crusts, sauces, and fresh cheese and toppings and literally that’s it. No hours spent in the kitchen, easy clean up and so much fun for the kids. I was so impressed with the selection at World Market…I was literally able to find everything from the table linens, to the actual pizza oven, and down to the pizza sauce and wine there…now that’s what I call a one stop shop! See how we pulled our little Sunday night pizza party together… Fresh Ingredients: Pizza Sauce EVOO Fresh Mozzarella Fresh Goat Cheese Shredded Cheddar Fresh Basil from our vertical herb garden Sliced Tomatoes Sliced Onions Sliced Mushrooms Pepperoni Prosciutto Guests choose from either a large crust to share or individual crusts, spread a thin layer of EVOO, layer pizza sauce on top, spread first layer of cheese, add fresh toppings, add another layer of cheese…Pop into oven until cheese bubbles and outer edges of crust are golden brown. I also had white wine to go with veggie an non-dairy pizzas and a rich red to go with tomato based pizza…and lemon cello for the kids! This non-dairy recipe of goat cheese + prosciutto + walnuts + figs was a huge hit. I drizzled with honey as soon as it came out, too. Stay tuned, as I will post a full recap of the pizzas we tried next week! Someone certainly loved her pepperoni pizza! This artichoke spread on bruschetta was such an easy and delicious appetizer to have out. It’s so savory and delicious and its a great first course when serving pizza…oh and it absolutely does not taste like it’s out of a jar. So delicious! < > Shop the Post: Pizza Oven // Has since sold out, but THIS ONE is super cool and the same concept. Table Runner (on SALE!) Placemats (on SALE!) Napkins ($9.99 for a set of 6!) Acrylic Glasses Chargers // Also love THESE for this table setting Pizza Board Pizza Cookbook (SO many wonderful pizza recipes here!) Pizza Crust Artichoke Spread Mason Jar Vases I also love the idea of packaging the pizza board, cookbook, crusts, sauce and wine into a pretty basket as a wedding or housewarming gift. So fun, right? Happy Summer!! *This post was sponsored by World Market, but all opinions and pepperoni are my own 🙂 testing stringtesting string
