Domino's Pizza opened its first franchise location in 1967 and by 1978, the company had expanded to 200 stores. Monaghan planned to add a new dot with the addition of every new store, but this idea quickly faded, as Domino's experienced rapid growth. The company logo originally had three dots, representing the three stores in 1965. Monaghan immediately loved the idea and officially renamed the business Domino's Pizza, Inc. One day, an employee, Jim Kennedy, returned from a pizza delivery and suggested the name "Domino's". Monaghan wanted the stores to share the same branding, but the original owner forbade him from using the DomiNick's name. īy 1965, Tom Monaghan had purchased two additional pizzerias he now had a total of three locations in the same county.

Go ahead and whip it up ahead, you’ll definitely want what’s coming! Friday is pizza night after all so it’s bound to be something extra delicious and totally crave worthy.Domino's is an American multinational pizza restaurant chain. This is a little sneak peek of Friday’s recipe. Just a few minutes and you have a creamy pizza sauce ready to be used or stored for later!
This white garlic pizza sauce is absolutely perfect and completely dreamy. It would be truly wrong to not love any of those. Totally random, but who remembers this song? Don’t be mad if it’s stuck in your head for the rest of the day. Another forgotten holiday by retailers… So sad. They’re skipping right over St Patrick’s day by throwing chocolate eggs out already. What?! Why can’t we just get through one holiday at a time. On that note… while out, begrudgingly doing errands in the cold, I noticed that Target already has Easter stuff out right next to Valentine goodies. I’ve been seeing snaps and pictures from around the country where it’s even worse. But I know we’re not alone with the frigid weather. With windchill it was below zero yesterday. Why is it that I always manage to run out of things when I absolutely don’t want to leave the house. A flavorful alternative to traditional tomato based pizza sauces.
