There was an Alfredo, available yesterday, I added but yogurt and extra egg white, to my mayonnaise! I stuffed! Cause then I couldn,t make a pizza crust( Going to market for catching the paste was impossible ) but at last I put some cheese in Alfredo sauce, and also my vegetables ( I allured for this veg sort of ingredient already cause mainly ), and filled my flat breads(my taftoons, between!), while then they that have been put in a greased plate by butter, were baked, after wards by down a flame ; they would have been, one time ((folded sandwiches)).

It was good. We agree that next time we will omit the parmesan on the top. As my 9 year old said, it makes it crunchy- and this isn't a crunchy dish. I appreciated the ease of prep and the fact that everybody ate it without having to nag (the kids, that is) update 5-12-09-- I was short on time today, so used pepperoni as the meat and a jar of pizza sauce for the sauce. A quick, yummy, kid-friendly dinner for a busy weeknight!

I would definitely add more veggies to this, and I agree with using sausage in place of the ground beef. I've also used veggie crumbles instead of beef, and that works really well, too.

What a great supper we just had! This is a terrific recipe, where the heck has it been hiding? I used sweet Italian sausage in place of the hamburger and our favorite local brand of pizza sauce. DH loved it! Will definitely be putting this in our regular menu rotation! Next time I make it, I think I'll add some sauteed peppers and onions to the meat along with the mushrooms. Thanks again ~Bekah, for this great recipe, only regret that I didn't run across it sooner!
