Gluten Free Pizza Casserole
Sometimes you make a dish that everyone around you goes, huh?
Presenting gluten free pizza casserole! I see you ogling, and gazing and MmmmMMMmm over this dish. Or you’ll be like my mom, “huh?”
The story unfolds like this. You can blame my father. He told my mother he wanted chicken, tomato sauce, veggies and pasta noodles for supper. I thought, that sounds good. I’m going to make myself the same thing, minus the pasta.
I cook very much like my father. I throw things together and hope for the best. Ohhh this dish turned out great! I started with diced bacon. Most excellent decision! I sautéed it with chopped onions, assorted peppers, mushrooms, garlic and chicken with a generous dash of salt & pepper. Right off the bat I was going for a pizza taste.
Then I opened a can of tomato sauce and poured enough into the pan to cover everything. At this point I was taste testing some of it. It was good! It was so good I decided this was a blog post recipe. Out of the blue, I thought, “I need “noodles” for this recipe.” I didn’t have zucchini but I had A LOT of cabbage… I ran to the other fridge, grabbed the leftover cabbage from my raw sauerkraut experiment. I sliced thick noodles from it. Took the “pizza” sauce out of the pan and threw the cabbage into the pan drippings. Oh my!
That was a good idea! I assembled it with the cabbage noodles on the bottom and the pizza sauce poured over it. I stood looking at my creation and named it, Gluten Free Pizza Casserole.
