Hawaiian Pizza

Pizza is one of my favorite foods, and the sweet sauce at Papa John's is my all-time favorite. My viewpoint is, if you're going to make it at home, don't make it "just as good," make it better! So I'm remaking a medium Papa John's pie with pineapple, onion and bacon(BACON!!!). Fresh homemade sauce and premium ingredients make this recipe more than worth the calories, and still trimmer than the fast food original!Submitted by: KRAMTHEGRAM

NOT Fried Eggplant

The problem you always run into with eggplant is blandness and it's hard for me to enjoy it without frying it up! (not so healthy) until now ;)Submitted by: VANILLAKISS555

Just a few questions. How much sun dried tomatoes are to be used. In case I want to use other brown rice, what is the package size of TJ's rice. And can I assume that the rice has been cooked? - 7/13/08
