Mexican Limeade

We got this recipe back in the good ol' Costa Vida days, from an employee named Liz.  It is the best thing ever.  I think once we served it in martini glasses with a sugar rim or something.  Fun.

2 limes (quartered or whatever)
3 spoons* lechera**
1/2 c sugar
1 c water

Blend it up and serve it over a lot of ice.***

*yes, she just said "spoons."  I love it.  It's pretty much to taste, but I'd say probably tablespoons.
**sweetened condensed milk
***because it will be pretty strong, so as the ice melts it will dilute it a little.

Pizza Sauce





We recently adopted the weekly tradition of pizza and a movie on Fridays.  For our first time making pizza, I just bought dough in a bag at Winco, and it was really good.  Devin found this sauce recipe and made it in the blender.  The whole thing turned out splendidly.  Since then I've been making my own dough from a Vitamix recipe, which I think is better.

1 (6-oz) can tomato paste
1 1/2 c water
1/3 c olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
salt & pepper to taste
1/2 Tbs oregano
1/2 Tbs basil
1/2 tsp rosemary

Combine all in blender and blend until smooth.  Makes enough for 2-3 15" pizzas.
