Hump~Day Happy Hour Idea #2
Now that we’ve hit mid-week and we are that much closer to Friday, why not call a few friends over for Pizza and Beer!?! Right now I cannot participate in the alcohol portion of Happy Hour because I am pregnant, but I am all over the food part of it. Personal homemade pizzas are one of my favorites. There’s nothing I love more then to have a wide variety of toppings in front of me and be able to make my own pizza creations. Top these ideas off with a couple of cold beers and it is a great way to get over the weekday hump.
Pizza Ideas
Chicken & Broccoli Alfredo Pizza:
- Buy pre-packaged pizza dough from the deli or freezer section of your local grocery store.
- Divide dough into personal size portions and place on baking sheet. Cook for ½ time.
- Make up a packet of garlic alfredo sauce and place on half cooked pizza crusts.
Layer with any of the following-

Beer Choices:
If I could enjoy a beer with pizza, it would be a light beer but there is no real perfect beer for this meal. It basically comes down to personal choice so have a few favorites on hand to offer your guests. And please have one for me! Happy Hump-Day!
