Tweet

Once a month cooking is frugal and convient. When I was working up to 60 hours a week outside the home, I had to do all my cooking on my day off which was on tuesday. I did alot of Once a month cooking (OAMC)One of the things that I made often was The basic Pizza Casserole. It is something that even picky eating kids will eat. In fact, they love it. It is very easy to make and freezes well. I've also found that letting a toddler that is a picky eater 'help' prepare the meal makes them feel like a big kid, they helped make dinner and thus they are more likely to enjoy their food. Here is the recipe. The basic Pizza Casserole INGREDIENTS 8 oz of pasta (any fun shape) 32 oz jar of pizza sauce (or use your own homeade) any toppings you like on pizza EX: pkg of pepperoni, chopped ham, black olives, ground beef, ground sausage (drain all grease) pkg of chopped bacon or onions The possibilities are endless as the types of pizzas... 1pkg (2cups) of Mozzarella cheese DIRECTIONS Cook and drain pasta. Add prepared meat/veggie toppings (these prep ahead and freeze for quick throw together) Add pizza sauce Put in casserole dish Add Mozzarella cheese on top COOK In microwave on HIGH for 2-3 mins or put in conventional oven on 350 until bubbly.
