Recipe of the Week: Cheddar & Smoked Veggies Pizza

It's been another mostly cracker 'n spread week. With some of the left-over Cheddar Cheeze Spread (Mosaica says she could eat that stuff every day! lol), last night we treated ourselves to a yummilicious pizza. I was debating whether to call it 'Cheddar & Bacon' due to the smokey flavor of the veggies, but decided against it. I sometimes cringe at the use of SAD names, particularly when it comes to meat products, and in this case, I felt it would have been stretching it a bit far. Anyhoo, you get the drift... I bet this combination would also work really great in a soft veggie wrap. Mmmmmmm
