Menomale Pizza Napoletana: Authentic Pizza Pies

This newly-opened traditional pizzeria has rapidly become a Washington, D.C. favorite, serving up thin-crust pies topped with a spectacular sauce and freshly-sourced meats and vegetables. The team behind this restaurant has a unique pedigree – the pizzas are handled by Ettore Rusciano, who was born in Italy and studied the art of the pizzaiolio until he was awarded the title of Master, while his partner Leland Estes brings an encyclopedic knowledge of beers to the table. The restaurant offers 20 craft beers on draft and a large list of bottled brews from all over the globe. This combination makes Menomale a favored neighborhood hangout that has diners and drinkers alike raving. The centerpiece of the restaurant is a hand-built, 6,000 pound wood-fired oven that reaches internal temperatures of 900 degrees – essential for producing that crisp char that gives pizza its character. The space is a little small, but it’s always packed with pizza lovers who proclaim it the best in D.C.

Easy Slow-Cooker Meals for Busy Weeknights

If you can never seem to find the time to prepare a full meal for your weeknight dinners, the slow cooker may be the answer to all of your mealtime woes. Here are a few easy slow-cooker meals perfect for your next busy weeknight.

Spicy Turkey Lasagna [bhg.com]
Lasagna in the slow-cooker? Yep, it’s possible! This recipe takes just 20 minutes to prep the meat, noodles, and veggies, and since it takes just under four hours to cook, it’s a quicker alternative to the usual day-long slow-cooker meals.

Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings [allrecipes.com]
If you’re craving something hearty and comforting, these slow-cooker chicken and dumplings taste just as good as the kind your grandma used to make—but likely with half the effort. Use canned soup and packaged biscuit dough to save even more time.

Vegetarian Pinto Bean Sloppy Joes [eatingwell.com]
While many slow-cooker recipes contain meat, this veggie-filled version of the classic sloppy Joe is perfect for vegetarians. Instead of the usual ground beef, you’ll use pinto beans, zucchini, and corn in a sauce that’s equal parts tangy, smoky and perfect for a chilly autumn evening.

Happy Thanksgiving!

We hope everyone has a wonderful day celebrating with family and friends! What are you thankful for this year?
