Tebow Family Pizza

It has been quite the weekend.  I took Saturday off work to go to Treena's house for the Ohio State/Nebraska game.  Winning!  That's how we do.  {I'm better now}

Last night we went and got the boys' Halloween costumes.  Much to Otto's dismay, Target didn't have a Batman in his size.  Everything was 1-2 years or 5-7 years and 8-10 years.  Did the manufacturers forget about 3-4 years.  I'm sure I'm not the only mom who ever had a 3 year old.  :)  In any case, Otto opted into Iron Man and Eddie is getting to be Batman.  We'll how that goes.  Otto noticed the Batman costume and started saying he was going to wear it.  Uht Oh.

So, this pizza.  Found it around the web and was skeptical.  I mean, I'm in no way shape or form on the Tebow bandwagon, but when I hear something is a "family recipe" I have to at least check it out.  All the ingredients seemed harmless enough and easy to put together.  Little did I know how freaking good this pizza is!  It's so rich (in a flavor happy dance on your tongue way} and so so yummy.  Think deep dish saucy meat pie with buttery to die for crust and lots of ooey gooey cheese.  Bliss!


One Year Ago: Ghost Feet & Garlic Parmesan Pull-Apart Bread

Tebow Family Pizza
From Taste of Home

Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef
1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
1 envelope Italian-style spaghetti sauce mix
6 ounces tomato paste
3/4 cup water
1 tube flaky biscuits
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
2 cups mozzarella cheese

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

In a large skillet, cook and stir beef and pepper over medium heat until met is no longer pink; drain.



Stir in the sauce mix, tomato paste and water; bring to a boil.  Reduce heat; simmer for 7 to 10 minutes or until thickened, stirring occasionally.



Separate biscuits from each other, and then separate each biscuit into two layers (half it!)  Press biscuits onto the bottom and sides of a greased deep-dish 9" pie plate to form a crust.  Smush biscuits to seal any gaps.  Sprinkle with 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese; fill with meat mixture.



Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese and 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese.  Bake for 15 to 18 minutes or until golden brown and cheese is melted.

  4. This looks so good, Julie! Now I am a Gators fan but I have to admit, I am not on the Tebow bandwagon. I just can't obsess over sports stars. I'll have to try this out sometime.
