My daughter thinks she doesn’t like spaghetti with marinara sauce on it. She loves pizza. So last Monday, I took great pleasure in watching her eat this… Oh yes! Spaghetti disguised as pizza! It’s the little things really. I used this recipe and this recipe. I liked the presentation of the Kraft foods recipe since [...]
