My Current Hair Obsession

Lily Aldridge has gorgeous soft ombré hair with bouncy layers that I have coveted for yeeeeeaaaarrrrsss. It is a timeless look that is perfect for fall. I am thinking it is time to turn my blonde ombré into a caramel ombré 😁.  Wish me luck!

What I have been pinning

Here are a few of my fall favorites. Pinterest is a great tool to find trends that are right for YOU. 

1. Lily Collins sleek half pinned up hair with middle part. Very polished and easy to maintain

2. A pop of color. Nothing I love more than dark navys, browns, blacks and greens with a pop of mustard yellow or red.

3. Dark lips. Fall is the best time to try out those berry and wine colors you have stashed away. Try with a classic smokey eye or just mascara.

4. Colored jeans with riding boots. Enough said.

Bacon and Caramelized Onion Calzons

Hello Everyone! Lately I have been craving Caramelized onions and then I found a unique recipe using just that. This is my adapted version from halfbakedharvest.com. (Definitely check that blog out for some awesome recipes!)

Bacon and Caramelized Onion Calzones

What you need

1 pizza dough 

1 medium sweet onion

1 tsp chopped garlic

1/2 pound of cooked bacon

1/4 cup of BBQ sauce

1 tsp brown sugar 

1 tsp of butter

1 cup of cheese I recommend fontina or cheddar 

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

To start roughly chop the onion and add to a hot sautée pan. You can use a little olive oil here but I used cooking spray to lower the calories. Sautée until onions are translucent then lower the heat and add garlic, brown sugar and 1 tsp of butter. Cook for about 3 minutes as the onions are caramelizing then add the BBQ sauce. Set to the side. 

Divide pizza dough into 4 sections. Roll sections out. Put a heaping spoonful of the onion mixture on each of the dough sections. Add the cheese and crumble the bacon. Fold one side of the dough over and press into the other size making a seam. Take the two ends and tuck them under to keep the filling in place. 

I sprayed mine with cooking spray and dusted with garlic powder. You can use olive oil and fresh garlic also. 

Cook for 25 minutes or until tops are browned and serve!

Bacon tip* I cook mine on a baking dish in the oven at 375 for about 10 minutes.
