Recipe….You’ve GOT to try!

After reading today’s post at rocks in my dryer which includes a recipe, I decided I would add a recipe for today’s post as well.  It’s a cheap, easy recipe without too many ingredients.  So, I’m keeping with the same criteria.  It’s yummy!  I’ve been making this for nearly 18 years since my oldest was little.  Your welcome!  Here it is…

MOZZARELLA PIE:

      1 ½- 2 lbs ground beef

      1 jar Ragu’ sauce

      16 oz mozzarella cheese

      2 cans crescent rolls

      Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

      Brown ground beef, drain, add Ragu’ and simmer.

      Unroll one can of crescent rolls, separate and form bottom crust in 9×13 dish.

            Bake bottom crust for about 5 minutes.  Crust will rise slightly.

                 (Without this step, the crust will not rise and will likely be mushy.)

      Remove baking dish from oven and top with meat sauce.

      Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.

Unroll second can of crescent rolls, separate and press sections over cheese to form top crust.

      Bake for 15-20 minutes until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted.

       *Optional:  Add pepperoni for a pizza pie taste.

       *Tip:  Layer the meatsauce, pepperoni and cheese like lasagna.
