Two things I love about summer dinners: pizza & salad. If it were up to my kids, especially my son Madden, we would have pizza every night. I like to have salad in addition to the delicious pizzas my family craves. Summer is the time of year where you look for easy meals because it’s the season of vacations, swimming, hot weather and if your family is like mine, sports camps, practices, and games. So throwing together a salad with pizza makes an easy dinner that everyone is guaranteed to love.
