Okay, okay, okay simmer down! I’m sharing the recipe! It wasn’t my own, I actually was inspired by this recipe to make it. I’ve made it at least a dozen times and it’s a big crowd pleaser and hit with the family!
I’ve experimented a few ways, so learn from my mistakes:
It does NOT make a good freezer meal
You can however make it the night before, leave in the fridge, come home and throw it in the oven the next night (I like to make this on Sunday and eat on Monday)
You cannot swap out pasta sauce instead, it is too watery
Cheese is optional, but definitely makes it more pizza like. The family will never know it’s missing though if you want to experiment
I’ve omitted the meat completely and it was a great vegetarian dish
I’ve used ground turkey and ground beef, it is delicious both times
The pepperoni on top this time was truly icing on the cake- like all meats, and especially pepperoni, look for a better quality one that is uncured & nitrate free
