Poutine Pizza

I’m not the most patient of people and struggle to wait for things I’m very excited about! I’ll always remember the night of Christmas Eve and the terrible time I had trying to get to sleep when all I could think about was if Santa was ever going to arrive with my stocking J Thankfully, I’ve got a bit better at waiting as I’ve got older – and I’ve had to be! I have to wait two months after my wedding day for my honeymoon to Vancouver and the Canadian Rockies. So to bide the time, I’ll just make some Canadian-inspired pizza recipes. I won’t be so stereotypical though as to go down the maple syrup route – instead, here’s my take on the Québec classic, Poutine – a dish of chips, cheese and gravy.
