I wonder what
they thought
before the doctors
began to diagnose
autism? Were there
just a bunch of
anti-social,
rainman-type,
idiot savants who no
one knew were
really just simply
autistic, blocked
from so-called
“normal” forms of
communication?
How many child
prodigies were over-
looked, genius
unfulfilled?
Then South
Park resumes, and I
let the idiots
entertain my numbed-by-society
brain.

You can't see the chicken and bacon, but it's there. Promise.
Do you remember those Mexican Pizzas from Taco Bell?
Yeah…I know. Ew on the Taco Bell. But for some reason, I loved them. Of course, I always topped them with sour cream, and left off the ground meat-like-stuff because….uh yeah.
I don’t think that’s really meat. Just sayin’.
So here at Casa Christel, I’ve been experimenting with making my own version.
I was going for a combination between the Taco Bell, and those yummy Papa Murphy’s Garlic Chicken DeLite Pizzas.
And I hate thick crusts. Bare with me. This will all make sense when you take your first bite.
What you need:
2 large tortillas
1 chicken breast
3 strips of bacon
1/2 c. red pepper, diced (optional…I’m leaving this out next time)
1 medium tomato, diced
1/2 c. green onion, diced
1/4 c. fresh cilantro, chopped
2 Tbl. ranch dressing
2 c. pepper jack cheese, shredded
Okay then. Got all your food stuff prepped? Ready, set, GO!
Throw the bacon & chicken in a pan over medium heat, until the chicken is cooked. Set aside to cool. You can chop your veggies while you’re cooking the meat!
Take your pizza pan, which hopefully looks better than mine. (Note to self: Buy new pizza pan)
Grab your cooking spray & apply to both sides of the first tortilla. Trust me. This is important, as it will provide a crunchy crust later.
Then smear half the ranch dressing on top of the tort. You can do all the building directly on the pizza pan! 🙂
Now dice up your chicken and bacon, placing it on the ranch-smeared tortilla.
Sprinkle the cilantro over that. Or leave it out if you don’t like cilantro. (Dad)
Now liberally spread a cup of cheese around on top. You can use whatever cheese you have.
Remember Rule #1 in Casa Christel? Recipes: they’re more like guidelines.
Now spray the second tortilla with the funky-smelling spray stuff. I do this near the backdoor, because I’m pretty sure the cooking spray is poisonous. At the minimum, it gets you kind of high if you breathe it in. Just sayin’. 😉
Seriously? You’re all still reading? I mean, I just tried to poison you, and get you high?!
Y’all rock, by the way. 😉
Anywhoosit….
Where was I? (Must be the after-effects of the cooking spray.)
Oh yeah…now put your second tort on top of the whole mess.
MORE RANCH! Yum. Spread it around with a knife. Or your finger. Whatever.
Sprinkle the peppers, tomato, and green onions all over the top.
MORE CHEESE! 🙂
Now bake it at 380 degrees for about 10 minutes.
What you get it a big crunchy, gooey, yummy kinda pizza thing!
Now chop it up in four even slices. Or as close to even as you can get with the whole hazy shade of cooking spray.
You can top it with avocados for even more yummy goodness?!
Hands-down: best late-night munchies or even a lunch.
Serves two.
I don’t even want to know how many calories are in this, but you’ve got to admit, it probably has less than the Taco Bell version?!

Yeah. I think the title says it all. Sorry I’m not all verbose and creative with my title today. I kind of fell into this experiment while on the bus this morning because I couldn’t find my pen. Again. And I had line going through my head, so I tweeted them. I tagged them #buspoetry at first, but then I did it again while on a smoke break at work, and #buspoetry seemed like a lie, so I tagged it #tweethaiku. Not that I’m trying to write haikus necessarily. That one just worked out like that. Anyway, I think I’m going to keep doing this for a while. Well, at least today, I’m trying to limit my tweets to poetry, but I’m long-winded and have to bitch about work somewhere, so that might not be entirely it. Eventually, my poetic tweets are going to become something cohesive (I hope), or at a minimum, I’ll have something I can pull together for a social media meets poetry arts kind of thing? It could work. Maybe. And if it doesn’t, who cares? Only a few people probably even notice the random tweets anyway, and if I can bring a smile or a “hmmm” to someone’s day, then I’ve accomplished my good deed for the day. So, off to poetic tweeting!
Enjoy your day, lovelies. 🙂
