Pizza Pasta Recipe

Some ideas to change up this pizza pasta:

• Canadian bacon
• Bell pepper
• Olives
• Ground beef
• Ground turkey
• Mushrooms
• Fresh basil
• I also like to sneak in some grated zucchini for extra veggies!! The kids and husband don’t even notice!

What are your favorite pizza flavors?? We are pretty divided in our house. My husband and I like a wider variety of pizza flavors but our kid’s favorite is pepperoni.

My husband doesn’t care for pepperoni on its own but likes it with many types of meat or on a supreme. As for me, I’ll try any that don’t have anchovies or super weird ingredients.

One Pot Pasta

As I mentioned earlier one pot meals are a life saver. They are quick and easy to make and don’t require a lot of dishes! YAY for fewer dishes, am I right!!!

Unless you don’t mind washing a counter full of dishes………and in that case can you come to my house???? I promise you’ll never run out of dishes to wash! 🙂

So next time you need a quick and easy meal and pizza is calling your name try this instead of calling for delivery!!
