Kid Friendly Pizza Casserole

This is one of my family's favorite dishes and one I've loved for years too!! It was actually taken from the Weight Waters 5 Ingredient 15 Minute Cookbook but I made a few adjustments and added some extra ingredients....to part of the dish.  On the right I added pepperoni and olives, in the middle only olives and on the left neither were added.  This was based on kid vs adult preference.

Personally I had middle pieces so I had less crust.  This is low fat, low calorie meal that everyone enjoyed!!  For 21 Day Fixers, I counted this as a Yellow, Red, and Blue.  The kids had applesauce on the side while the adults had a salad.

Ingredients
1 pound ground round meat or turkey
15 oz can chunky Italian-style tomato sauce
10 oz can refrigerated pizza crust dough
1 1/2 cups (6 oz) pre-shredded mozzarella or Mexican cheese
Olives
Pepperoni's
Cooking spray or Coconut oil

Cooking Directions
Preheat over 425 degrees
Cook meat in a nonstick skillet over medium-heat high until browned, stirring until it crumbles. Drain, if necessary, and return to skillet.  
Add tomato sauce and cook until heated.

While meat cooks, coat a 13X9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.  Unroll pizza crust dough and press into bottom and halfway up sides of baking dish. Top bottom of pizza crust with meat mixture. Top with olives and pepperoni's. 

Bake uncovered at 425 degrees for 12 minutes. Top with cheese and bake 5 minutes until crust is browned and cheese melts. Cool 5 minutes before serving. 

Yield 6 servings.

Birds of Paradise - Chicken Recipe

Growing up, we ate a lot chicken. Chicken and rice. Chicken and salsa. Chicken casserole. I wasn't sure why we ate so much chicken. I thought it was just because my mom was on a Weight Watchers diet.  She would put the chicken in the oven and then go on a walk.  I always wanted to tag along on my bike. Now I understand. Chicken is quick and easy. Chicken is inexpensive. Chicken can be healthy. Now as a mom I also understand, my mom wanted to on on those walks alone...to have some peace and quiet time!
