Disclaimer: in real life I think the recipe submitter is pretty awesome. Despite our friendship like GW I cannot tell a lie so rest assured the review is legit (in fact I stumbled upon the recipe in the newest recipes and didn't even realize it was hers until I was about to make it!). I wasn't sure what to expect with this but we loved it! It was like spaghetti and meatballs and garlic bread all in the same easy to eat dish. I had everything in the freezer (Jay's pizza crust dough Meatball Nirvana and homemade sauce) so all I had to do was thaw that stuff boil noodles and assemble. Pretty easy. To help you from making the same mistakes I did please note the submitter tells you to flour your work space. This is key to avoid rippage. It's helpful to rinse the pasta in cold water (or use cold leftovers) to avoid warming the dough/rippage too. The measurements are spot on though I did add some raw diced onion and fresh mozz simply because they needed to be used. I'm a lousy roller (and had already made the aforementioned mistakes) so mine ended up being more stromboli like than rolled. We especially liked the garlic salt on top. I think this would be a great filling snack/meal for beer drinking and watching sports! THANKS Sanzoe for another winner!
What a delicious and fun recipe to make and to eat. I used a homemade pizza crust by duboo and it worked great with this recipe. I read the recipe and then read the review by lovestohost and used her suggestion of the cold spaghetti. I did not have any problems with the dough ripping. This came together quickly and baked up nicely. The taste was wonderful and the next time and there will be a next time I'm going to add a green pepper. Thanks sanzoe for sharing your recipe.
I used a file dough instead of cornbread easier to get flat plus closer to a bread taste. Key is to work with cold precooked products (leftover chilled pasta already sauced). If you'r like me and like to add extra ingredients to pasta (vegetables. meat chunks etc) all the better and you don't need to limit to just spaghetti style pasta and cooked pasta will do. Another great add is cheese like mozzarella or jack cheese to make all ingredients stick together better inside crust.
This was so fun to make and it came out wonderful.. Thank you for posting it
I made this for supper tonight and everyone loved it. Instead of meatballs I added cooked ground hamburger to my sauce. I will be making this again.
Yes... I tried but my thumbs didn't do any of the photos justice... It tastes great though!
Needed way more than 1/4 cup of sauce. So as its noted add sauce for taste. I used Hunts cheese and garlic spaghetti sauce (the whole can) 2 Betty crocker dry pizza crust (just add water) and only 12oz of spaghetti noodles.
Definitely making again. Going to change the meatballs to Italian sausage. Easy to make.
I haven't tried this recipe (yet) but I certainly will. However being a life long member of the bread club I was making spaghetti sandwiches since my children were very young ( oldest child is over 40-ish) but haven't tried pizza dough. I use whatever bread within reach. I also sometimes add a bit of sour cream yummmm! For me this is fine dining. Bon Appetite!
my husband loved it me not so much. if I make it again I'll be adding more stuff like peppers Bacon cheese and herbs. but it's definitely a great idea for children
