Does your TJ’s have the garlic/herb crust? I love that one! The wheat one is my second favorite though!
kate 11.09.2010
Im all about the apps..but I try to usually bring something healthy-ish, just so I know Im covered if I need to balance out my plate!
Steph 11.09.2010
I am so so sad that TJs came to Des Moines after I moved to the Quad Cities. I too have avoided making my own pizza crust and this looks amazing!
Jessie 11.09.2010
I am terrified of yeast doughs too! I finally gave it another try using a recipe from Cooking Light and it was a total success. I actually just wrote about it tonight and the post is scheduled to publish in the morning. Don’t give up on making your own crust!
Sarah K. @ The Pajama Chef 11.09.2010
yeast isn’t scary. get a bread maker and then you’ll get used to it.. baby steps! and i always pick dessert too! so many options, esp. since they can be made ahead of time :)

The one good thing I got out of a lousy college relationship was a good (yeast-included) pizza dough recipe. I add some Italian herbs or garlic or jalapenos to it and it’s sooooo good. You need to lose the fear and give it a try! (This written by someone who can’t bake worth a darn.)
I usually offer to bring drinks — because I love to pick out wines! — but I accidentally volunteered to bring dessert to a viewing of the Project Runway finale (Tangent: WTF, Nina and Michael?) and managed to find an amazing recipe for pumpkin bread pudding. I served it with vanilla ice cream and toasted pecans…huge hit.

I used to bring desserts – was actually forced to bring desserts when I was big into making cheesecakes. Now, I’d rather bring an appetizer and it is usually a lightened up version of spinach artichoke dip.
I’ve heard great things about the TJ pizza dough…next time I am in Des Moines I’ll have to grab some, as well as one of everything else. Better remember to pack the cooler!

I loveeee caramelised onions! If I have spare time I’ll generally boil eggs or make fried rice or something like that. Oh, and if I can handle yeast Kristin, you can too! Seriously, it is SO easy – I’m a total kitchen noob and I’m making my own pizza dough now. I’m even getting used to the nasty yeast smell.
Bridget 11.09.2010
That pizza looks great! I could eat onions daily if it didn’t ruin my breath. :) I usually make an appetizer for a party. I’m not a good baker and I enjoy a good appetizer as well. I’m looking for a new recipe so if you’ve got some of your personal faves post them. I tried so many of your recipes and they’re all delish!
Rachel 11.09.2010
ooh, i used to always choose dessert…but now i go with side dish! I discovered an awesome roasted vegetable couscous dish with a lemon balsomic sauce… it sounds fancy and like a lot of work, but it totally isn’t! impress people with minimal effort!! :)
Clare @ Fitting It All In 11.09.2010
I NEED to try that TJ’s pizza dough! But we have tons of frozen boboli crusts in the freezer to work through already :(
Iowa Girl Eats 11.09.2010
It’s ok – Boboli’s is one of my faves too. Next time! :D
Lisa @bakebikeblog 11.09.2010
oh my – that is MY KINDA pizza!! YUMMO!
Abby 11.09.2010
I finally made it to Trader Joes today! Yay! And I bought that exact same crust…can’t wait to try it. Your pizza looks amazing!
christina 11.09.2010
hmm…either dessert or app. hard to choose b/c i have some fantastic recipes for both. would probably end up bringing one of both! lol
i’m scared to death of baking with yeast, too. i feel ya.
Darcy 11.09.2010
Does the dough come frozen or thawed? I’ll have to wait for the poor store to re-stock!
Iowa Girl Eats 11.09.2010
It’s fresh – near the sushi and fresh ravioli!
Amanda 11.09.2010
I’m terrified of yeast too! I had one flat loaf of bread not too long ago…still haven’t recovered. And I always pick dessert too–for the same reasons you do!
Melissa 11.09.2010
Dessert, for sure. BUT! I was asked to bring something savory to a party recently & I did mini versions of these garlic knots.
http://annies-eats.com/2010/09/29/soft-garlic-knots/
Yes, I had to use yeast, but it was SUPER easy (and actually really fun making the little knots)! I sprinkled mine with a little garlic salt in addition to the topping & they are insane! Must try!
Melanie 11.09.2010
Oh my goodness, you need to try cooking with yeast! It is SO satisfying to see a loaf of bread rise and then to smell it baking – I baked bread all the time as a teenager with the help of a cute kid’s cookbook (but with great recipes and instructions) called Knead It, Punch It, Bake It!
Iowa Girl Eats 11.09.2010
I know, I really want to be able to punch down some dough – I’m just so nervous about ruining it! Although…even if I mess it up it’s just water, flour and yeast – that’s like, what, $.10?! ;)
Melanie 11.10.2010
Exactly – you can do it! ;)
Liz @ Blog is the New Black 11.09.2010
Dessert ALL THE WAY! Your din looks delish- and I’ll have to try that TJ’s crust!
Iowa Girl Eats 11.09.2010
You really should – it comes in regular white crust too!
Jessica @ How Sweet It Is 11.09.2010
Dessert here too! Surprising, huh? :)
Iowa Girl Eats 11.09.2010
Shocking… ;) Happy belated birthday by the way!!!
