Unique Day in History - John DeLorean's Death

No, we’re not going for the morbid in this post. In fact, we’ve been having a little fun with our series on “80 Days Around the World,” so Rudy came up with a great idea of opening another series based on unique events in history. You won’t find the signing of the Declaration of Independence, The Hindenburg Disaster or D-Day. But, you will find lesser known events that whether you know it or not affected you and the world around you. 

Today we look at the death of John DeLorean. Well, so okay we’re not going to look at his death as much as the legacy he left behind—the fabled DeLorean. And while everyone’s favorite time- travelling car didn’t exactly sell out of car lots, what it did do is change the way we look at the world, past, present and future. From a hover board to flying cars. From armored bullet-stopping chest plates to self-drying clothes. The DeLorean brought us through time to see what was and what could be. Interestingly enough, the “Back to the Future” trilogy weren’t too far off in their predictions. After all, if you are within a decade of a real Cubs World Series Victory then you aren’t doing too bad. Still though, where the heck is my hover board? We were promised!

While we can’t rehydrate a pizza in the Toastilla, what we can do is give you a pretty quick “Back to The Future Pizza” to take with you while you invent that hoverboard in your garage. Seen in “Back to the Future 2” the green and red rehydrating pizza reminded viewers of what they can look forward to in the future. We want to remind you what you can look forward to in a couple minutes!

Back to the Future Red and Green Toastilla Pizza

Ingredients:

• Tomato puree tortilla
• 1 tbs. of pizza sauce
• 1 tsp. basil pesto
• 1 oz. fontina cheese, shredded
• 1 oz. Mozzarella cheese shredded
• 4-8 slices of pepperoni
• ¼ cup diced green bell peppers
• ½ oz. grated parmesan cheese

Directions:
With an order like this we just like to mix everything together, except the pepperoni and let the sauce and cheese ooze through the cracks.
Much like a lasagna, layer the mixture on the tortilla, then layer pepperoni, add more mixture and the pepperoni, topped with the remaining mixture.

Depending on how clean of an eater you are, this might be a bit sloppy. But, as my hubby always says,
​“If it ain’t sloppy, then you aren’t eating it right!”
