Pizza Lasagna

Written by Lisa on May 3, 2008 – 10:46 am -

9 uncooked lasagna noodles
1 can pizza sauce
1 can diced tomatoes
1 container (15 oz) ricotta cheese
1 tsp Italian seasoning
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese or Italian blend cheese
2 packages of pepperoni slices (3 1/2 oz each)

Cook lasagna noodles as directed on package and drain.

Preheat over to 350 degrees. Spray 12×8 (I only have a 8X8 so I used that instead) glass baking dish with cooking spray. In saucepan, mix pizza sauce and tomatoes. Cook until throughly heated. In a small bowl, mix ricotta cheese and Italian seasoning.

Spread 1/4 cup pizza sauce mixture in bottom of baking dish. Arrange 3 cooked noodles over the sauce. Spoon and spread half of the ricotta mixture over the noodles. Top with 1/2 cup of the mozzarella cheese, 1 cup sauce mixture, 1/3 each of the pepperoni slices. Repeat layers once.

Top with remaining noodles, sauce mixture, mozzarella cheese, and pepperoni slices.

Bake uncovered 30 - 35 minutes or until bubbly. Let stand 15 minutes before serving.

8 servings

Pizza Swirls

Written by Lisa on March 5, 2008 – 10:20 am -

1 loaf (1 lb) frozen bread dough, thawed
1/4 cup prepared pasta sauce
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons finely chopped pepperoni
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Generously coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Roll out dough to a 10 inch square on a floured surface. Spread pasta sauce over dough. Reserve 2 tablespoons of mozzarella cheese for later. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella over the sauce. Top with pepperoni. Roll dough jelly style to enclose filling.

Cut roll crosswise into 10 slices. Place slices cut slide down on the baking sheet. Brush tops with oil. Sprinkle with Parmesan and reserved mozzarella cheese. Bake until golden brown (about 15 minutes). Serve immediately.

This was the recipe I was given for this. However, the next time I make this, I would at least double the mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, and pasta sauce.
