My youngest looooooves pasta. So my Tuesday night experiment was right up his alley. I decided to make a pizza crust out of pasta. It was astoundingly easy and super delicious.
Ingredients:
3 cups corkscrew pasta
3/8 cup milk
1 egg, beaten
3T parmesan cheese
Directions:
• Generously grease a 12 inch pizza pan. The size of the pan is important.
• Cook your pasta as directed on the box. Once the pasta is boiled, drain it well, rinse it with cold water and drain it again.
• Toss the pasta with the milk, a beaten egg, and the parmesan cheese (I used a combination of fresh and canned because that was what I had and it was delicious).
• Press the mixture into the bottom of the pizza pan til it forms one solid layer (shown above).
• Bake for 20 mins at 350.
Now you can top this base with almost anything you want! I made a simple meat sauce so my kids would eat it (shown below); but I think it would be good with grilled vegetables, roasted root vegetables, and of course lots of cheese. If you want the recipe for the simple meat sauce, message me and I will send it to you. If you have topping ideas of your own, please let me know!
