Mac 'N Cheese Pizza

Check out my guest blog featuring a Mac 'N Cheese Pizza recipe at And Puppy Makes Three.


Excuse the crust. :)

Ingredients:

Dough - I used a pre-made dough from Pillsbury
1/2 lb. rotini pasta
2 cups grated cheddar cheese
1 cup grated mozzarella cheese
2 cups of milk
1/4 block of Velveeta cheese
Pepper
Garlic
Flour
Olive oil spray

Optional Ingredients:
Bacon pieces
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese

Pre heat the oven to 450 degrees. Lightly coat the pizza stone with flour and roll the dough to appropriately fit on the stone. Make sure the dough is slightly from the edge. Depending on your preference, you can fold the dough over to make an enormous crust. Boil the noodles according to the directions on the box. Drain the noodles and evenly coat with olive oil spray. Brown a bit of minced garlic and add the milk, cheddar, mozzarella, and Velveeta cheese. Season with pepper and heat on low/medium. Continue stirring to prevent the sauce from burning. While the sauce is heating, spray the dough with olive oil and pop it into the oven for 7 minutes. Mix the noodles and sauce. Spread the mac 'n cheese on the dough after it has completed the short time in the oven.Mix the breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs on the pizza. Sprinkle bacon pieces (once cooked) on top of the pizza. Once the toppings are placed onto the pizza, pop the pizza into the oven for 10 minutes (still at 450 degrees). When the pizza is finished cooking, let the pizza sit for 10 additional minutes. Cut the pizza and enjoy!

Here is my take on the recipe. It was SO yummy! Little sis M helped make the pizza - the mac 'n cheese part was her idea. M is a huge fan of CiCi's Pizza and they have a mac 'n cheese pizza that she tried and loved. I tried it too which is what inspired the hunt for this creation. We added the breadcrumbs and bacon for extra flavor and it was a party in your mouth. Now that I have a pizza stone and have turned into a semi pro pizza maker (okay that is stretching it) I am so excited to play around and make weird, but tasty pizzas!
