Crockpot Pizza Casserole

How many times have you found a recipe and wondered if it was as good as it looked in the picture, or sounded? Yeah, well I am the same way as are many of my friends. We will discuss the recipe, and the conversation usually ends, well let me know if you try it how it is. This blog will be about the recipes, craft projects, etc.  I run across on Pinterest, or just across the web.

I have a bad habit of not following recipes exactly, (oh admit it you do the same thing), so I will try to make note of any changes. I would love to be able to take a picture of each food, but the truth is between DH and 3 starving boys, they usually get to the food before my camera does. Never the less, I will keep trying (if I could figure out where to hide my crockpot it would help).

I came across the recipe on Pinterest, followed it to the main source, and tried it.

It was very good! Let's call it 4 forks (try saying that fast). My changes? Well, first do to the aforementioned boys (one of which who has been known to eat 6 pork chops or 3 rib eyes at one sitting while his ribs are still sticking out), I doubled the recipe. I didn't rinse the pasta either. I did brown the hamburger with onion and peppers. I was out of garlic, so I left it out. I added 2 small jars of sliced mushrooms to the mix for a little added flavor and a bit of a veggie boost. Mixed it all up, dumped it into a large crockpot and cooked it for about 5 hours on low. By the time I went in for a picture, about half of it was gone - and it wasn't even supper yet! This is the picture from stockpiling moms (great site by the way), along with the link to the recipe. Enjoy!

  1. That picture looks absolutely delicious!! I may have to try this.
    I get pretty frightened when it changing recipes, I don't want to screw it up, or never know what to add to give certain flavors so I usually stick to the recipe. Thankfully the bf knows more about cooking so he helps.
    I look forward to seeing much more in here :)
