Night Out at P.F. Chang's

Tonight, Russ took a little study break to eat out with some great friends from medical school. I've written about them before - Pat and Felicia. We walked around Renaissance mall for a while, and then ate at P.F. Chang's. It was fabulous!! After P.F. Chang's we came back to our house for dessert - Fruit Pizza. *This is a recipe I got from Amanda Street, another med school wife. Her husband is in his fourth year of residency...so she always knows what I'm going through (and what comes next). She and Eric, her husband, have already signed a contract to practice pediatrics in Tupelo following next year. The pizza was great Amanda. Thanks!!

Fruit Pizza

1 pkg. refrigerated sugar cookie dough
1/2 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese
1/2 small carton Cool Whip
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 cup strawberries, sliced
1 kiwi fruit, sliced
1 banana, sliced
3/4 cup orange juice or lemon juice

Spread cookie dough out in a cookie sheet until the whole pan is covered to the edges. Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly brown. Let cool completely. Cream together cream cheese and powdered sugar. Stir in Cool Whip. Spread onto cooled cookie. You may use fruit mentioned (or any fruit of your choice). After slicing your fruit, dip it in orange juice or lemon juice to keep it from turning brown too quickly. Put on pizza. Slice and serve!!! Keep in fridge unless serving.
