Popover Pizza
"Family friendly recipe! If making it only for adults, I'd spice it up a bit.....but for families, this is excellent. Throw it together, put it in the oven, relax a bit and dinner is ready! Serve with a salad to get some green veggies in!"

This was amazing...it puffed up and came out so delicious...I used pizza sauce only because I had some that needed to be used up...I made the full 6 servings for 2 people...I have leftovers...and I'm sure they are going to be tasty...I made it with the hot sausage and red pepper flakes...made for "For Your Consideration" tag game...

Such an interesting idea....such a great dish!<br/>I used lean minced beef and hot Italian sausage ( minus the casings) , and didn't have to drain a thing.<br/>I also used my favourite homemade pasta sauce , which is without mushrooms, I was going to add some, but as I'm the only one in the family who doesn't moan when they eat them, I decided against it.<br/>DH, myself and DD (5) loved it, DS (7) wasn't so keen, but then he doesn't like anything these days, so we took no notice of him!<br/>This was a really quick, simple and great tasting dish, that ticked a big fat comfort food box for me....thanks breezermom....I'm hanging on to this one!<br/>Made for PRMR.

Succes!! The kids just loved this dish and were intrigued how it was opposite a regular pizza. I wanted to lighten it up a a bit and therefore only used ground turkey. It worked well but I am sure you get more of the real pizza flavour if you add pepperoni and sausage as well. I also added double garlic and next time I will add even more, salt and pepper. I only used 1 tsp oil in the bread portion which was fine. I will definitely be making this again - it is a true kid friendly dish!

This was a hit with us, too! I used chicken Italian sausage, then in lieu of the beef and pepperoni I added sliced mushrooms and bell peppers. My son was quite taken with our "upside down pizza", so I would definitely call this toddler friendly! I especially liked the special flavor added by the wine; it really kicked the recipe up a notch for me. Thanks for posting, breezermom--I know we'll make this again! Made for 123 Hits tag.
