Popover Upside Down Pizza
Monday, May 9, 2011
Now please don't cry.
Although I have no gift for rhythm and timing
I have the urge to go on rhyming.
This dish is easy peasy
and oh-so-nice-and-cheesy.
My kids were gaga with delight
when they saw the top take flight
and pop up into something so puffy
that they could not wait themselves to stuffy.
After that they excitedly and without reserve,
said that this dish was something to preserve!
So here it is upon the blog
for you to print and try and hog!
I know I am the worst poet you've (n)ever met,
So in the future, I'll stick to cooking and pans
and leave the rhyming to people who actually can(s).
The ingredients:
1 lb. ground beef (or ground turkey)
1 large onion, chopped
2 cups spaghetti sauce (can substitute with 1 can (15-ounce) tomato sauce plus one envelope spaghetti sauce mix)
1 cup chopped pepperoni
1 pkg. (8-ounces) sliced mozzarella cheese ( I used 2 cups of shredded mozzarella instead)
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1 Tbs. oil
1 cup flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Directions: In a large skillet, brown ground beef or turkey with onion. Pour off excess fat. Add spaghetti sauce (or tomato sauce and spaghetti sauce mix) and pepperoni and simmer 10 minutes. Spoon into greased 9x13-inch baking pan. Top with cheese. Place in 400 degree oven to keep hot.
To prepare popover batter, beat together eggs, milk, and oil. Add flour and salt; beat until smooth. Pour over hot pizza filling, being careful to cover filling completely. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes, until puffed and deep golden brown. Cut into squares and serve immediately. Makes 6 servings.
Enjoy!

This is genius! My hubby would go nuts over it!
What a GREAT idea!!!
Thanks for sharing this recipe it's definitely a really good reward for my brother who got his Food Handler Certification last week. But still work on the dough first. I'm not really the cook-type but I'd like to do something special for him.
We loved this meal! A great way to shake up our pizza night. Thanks!
We are making this for Friday the 13th with a Pineapple Upside Down Cake! It's going to be a great dinner! Thanks so much!
I made this for dinner tonight and my husband loved it! I'm really enjoying your recipes. I hope all is well with your son.
Could you add vegetables to it without messing it up
I've made it with sautéed peppers before and liked the flavor that it added. I'm not sure about other veggies. If you try it, come back and let me know how it turned out.
