Grown Up Dinner featuring Bon Appetit Pizza!

Who remembers the Schwan truck? I used to love Schwan days because my Mom always got us kids pizza, chicken nuggets, and cheese sticks…so bad for us but so so so good!! I haven’t seen a Schwan truck in about a million years so imagine my surprise when I was contacted by this new pizza company, Bon Appétit, and found out they were a part of the Schwan brand. Talk about a walk down memory lane…

While I do love the nostalgia of the Schwan’s brand, my taste buds have evolved past a love of cheese pizza, chicken nuggets, and cheese sticks. Luckily for me Bon Appétit offers gourmet pizza for people with grown up tastes. I grabbed a couple pizzas last time I was at my local Harps and made myself a grown up dinner.

I decided to try the Pepperoni and Pesto pizza first because I have had a serious craving for pesto lately. As described on the website…

“Pepperoni & Pesto is a bold combination of pepperoni, flavorful basil pesto and a zesty herb blend, along with mozzarella, Provolone and Parmesan cheeses.”

Other pizza flavors offered are Mozzarella and Pesto, Spinaci, Roasted Vegetable, and Trio Bacon. They all sound amazing!!!

Bon Appétit also was kind enough to also send me this amazing wine, because whats pizza night without a little wine?? Can I get an AMEN??

I made my pizza just like the box said to and it came out just the way I like it, crispy on the edges and perfectly baked in the middle. This crust is seriously perfection!! My teeth are pretty sore right now from my newest Invisalign trays and this pizza didn’t bother them at all. WIN!!

I also made s fun little spinach and strawberry salad and some yummy pasta salad to go with my pizza. I felt like such a grown up eating my very fancy/casual dinner!!

Overall this dinner was amazing and just what I needed after a long day. It was quick and delicious, and filled me up.

Thank you Bon Appétit for my amazing gourmet pizza, fancy wine, and making a random weeknight feel special!!

    I have heard of the Schwann truck, but we didn’t have it around here. I feel like I missed out. That pizza looks amazing, though. What an awesome dinner.

    I’ve never heard of this. I must say that it looks great and my favorite toppings are italian sausages paired with diced tomatoes.

    That’s one pizza I wouldn’t share with the kids. And pizza and wine is actually an AWESOME combo, isn’t it?

    I love gourmet, I am very much a foodie but my taste buds will always have a love of cheese pizza, chicken nuggets, and cheese sticks!

    That whole dinner looks amazing! I love pesto pizza but my daughter and husband are not huge fans so it is rare that I get to have it. You definitely have my AMEN on the wine! What’s dinner without wine right? Especially an Italian themed dinner.

    That is so cool. I didn’t know they were a part of Schwans foods. I never bought from them before but my grandparents bought from them a lot. This pizza looks great!

    I love meatballs and mushrooms on my pizza, while the rest of the family prefers plain old cheese. I have not heard of this brand, but the pizza looks yummy.

    The Schwann’s truck comes to my neighbor’s house frequently. Maybe we should give this delivery thing a try!
