What a fun recipe - looks great tastes great. I browned the angel hair well before flipping, used 1 cup hot salsa instead of pizza sauce GRrrrreat - I think the olives are a must. The onions I carmellized and only heated the peppers through Excellent Thanks Aroostook for a keeper

I don't want to rate this recipe, as I cut back on the oil a bit and skipped the olives, so I didn't follow the recipe exactly. But I had a very hard time flipping the spaghetti "crust." Our pasta pizzas turned into pasta bowls that tasted like really good spaghetti. We aren't complaining - 'cause it was good - but it wasn't exactly what I had envisioned. I do have a photo, though, which I can upload, if you'd like! :)
