Quickie reminder: don’t miss out on my giveaway
Do you have a witching hour in your house?
You know, that time when this
Becomes…
|
| This. |
Grumpy.
How about something that resembles pizza but has lots of vegetables hidden in it and doesn’t cost me the takeaway prices and grease.
Upside down Pizza
I found the original of this recipe as an advertisement in a Rachel Ray Magazine and I no longer can find it. I think that it was for Ragu.
Here’s my version which can be made ahead of time (reheat to eat in a hurry) or make quickly with toddler help and with the help of a snack while it is cooking will avert the witching hour freak-out.
Take 1 lb of ground beef and brown with; 1 garlic clove and 2 small zuchinni cut up (OR use a head of brocolli OR use peppers and mushrooms OR any other veg you would like to trick your family into eating).
Place in a baking dish (9×11) and top with 2 cups of tomato sauce.
Layer on shredded mozzarella (1 1/2 cups).
And finally a topping of pizza dough (you can just use a prepared ball from the grocery store or here’s a recipe)
Bake 30 minutes until browned and bubbly (330 degrees).
Here’s the face you want

I get super grumpy when I'm hungry too! This looks really yummy!
Me too, sometimes I don't even need the excuse of being hungry C:
Yup, we definitely have one of those hours, just after Hubby gets home. The kids get whiny and cranky and it's very hard to cook when a 2 year old is trying to climb up your legs, crying and fussing..and a 4 year old is in the fridge trying to eat anything he can get his hands on.
quick dinners are always great! I may be using this recipe in the near future (tonight??)
Thanks, as always for the awesome recipes!
By about 6 o'clock on those nights aren't you just exhausted? I guess that's what wine is for. C:
