This was really a delicious recipe and as you can see from the other reviews it is easily adaptable to whatever your taste, desire, or pantry allows. I didnt have quite enough hamburger so I mixed in some mild italian sausage.....fantastic.

LOVE this!! It’s like a combo Mac & cheese and meat pizza!!! YUM! I loved the original recipe and read other’s recs so added an 8oz. can of PIZZA sauce (instead of tomato sauce) and rounded the basil and oregano teaspoons. Also added a shake of chili pepper and cayenne pepper for a little extra zing! Liked the idea of cranking it up to broiler heat like someone suggested to brown the Mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses so did that after cooking it for 350 F for 10 mins. I watched it closely under the broiler for about 6 more minutes. Then let it rest for about 10 mins. before slicing into it. Came out beautifully!!
