Friday nights in the fall in our small town mean one thing – it’s a football night. High school football a pretty big deal in our town. Football is my family’s favorite sport. We love to go and cheer on my nephew who is a senior this year on the team. Up until last year, watching our local high school football game was two-fold. We would get to see our daughter Gabrielle perform as a member of the high school marching band during the halftime show and we would get to see nephew Kevin do his best out on the field as a safety and wide receiver. Now that Gabby has graduated and has moved onto college, we still take pride in watching Kevin play.

Friday night is always pizza night in our home. Since football season is in full swing, I don’t often have time to make pizza from scratch or order out. We have to get to the game! This is where Tony’s® Pizzeria Style Pepperoni Pizza comes in. It’s quick, delicious and pairs perfectly with a side of Caprese Tortellini Salad.

Living on a 700-acre farm, I love to incorporate farm fresh veggies that we grow into my recipes. Tomatoes and fresh basil team up to turn ordinary tortellini into a robust caprese salad.
