  1. I don't usually change recipes but did so with this one only because I had to use what was on hand. I used a jar of spaghetti sauce instead of the pizza sauce and it turned out great! The pepperoni makes this dish. It's summer so I just cooked it all up on the stovetop. Yum! I'll make this again.
     
  2. I made this for dinner and my family loved it. They requested that I make it again. This was very tasty and yummy! Thanks for the great recipe.........
     
  3. I added sliced olives and mushrooms. I also used whole wheat sprial noodles instead of macaroni noodles this may be why it turned out very dry. It was not bad, I would just recommend using another can of sauce which I will be trying next time I make it.
     
  4. This is a hard review for me. I liked it, dh didn't. I think we would have enjoyed it much better with spaghetti noodles instead of the macaroni's. One problem was that my ground beef came from Costco and it was dense. I do not hold that against the recipe but I would not recommend using too lean of a ground beef. Every now and then, we need a little fat. Chosen for PAC Fall 2006. Thank you kzbhansen and so sorry it didn't work out for us because it was super easy! I may try it sometime with the spaghetti noodles.
     
  5. We loved this! So very, very easy to make, yet the subtle difference of the pizza sauce instead of the usual Italian spaghetti sauce really made the children sing! (I did add a 4 oz. can of drained, sliced button mushrooms, because we love mushrooms on our pizza. Also I had to halve the pepperoni because I didn't have the full amount on-hand.) I also put 1/2 the shredded cheese in a layer on top in stead of mixed in. This is a very good alternative to the usual Italian macaroni-beef casserole, and a new keeper for me! :)

My name is Karen. I love to cook. I collect cookbooks, my favorite being ones you can get from churches or schools that have peoples personal favorites in them. Whenever I visit out of state I try to find 1-2 of these kinds of cookbooks. My hobbies are painting, cross stitch, scrapbooking and spending time with my 3 children. Megan 21 years old, Jeremy 16 Years old, and Clayton 8 years old. People love my pizza Swirls. I love all foods. I love to try complicated recipes for fun and I make alot of my own breads. My kids love to help me cook I think its a great time to get to communicate with our kids especially when life can get so crazy with school and such, this is a great habit we have gotten into, cooking and chatting LOL. We now have a smoothie night where we make an assortment of smoothies as a dessert, and on occasion we have had smoothies for dinner but that is a rare occasion. Its kids choice and they have fun on recipezaar because I have dedicated a cookbook just to smoothies. My daughter is getting creative in her smoothie endeavors and coming up with some incredible ideas! In Jan 09 I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer and have just began the treatments to get myself back up to speed. *UPDATE* November 2009 I have finished my radiation and chemotherapy and am on the mend. Chemo caused nerve damage in my leg so I am unable to walk without a cane and a brace but otherwise doing great!!!!!!!! <li><a href="http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewforum.zsp?f=2">Cooking Q & A Forum Host</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewforum.zsp?f=27">Desserts Forum Host</a></li> In september of 2009, The Pink ribbon tour came through Wickenburg.
