Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
-
Brown the meat and garlic in a large skillet over high heat. (If the meat releases a lot of fat, brown it alone and drain off the fat, then sauté the garlic with the meat for a couple minutes.) Add the sauce and seasonings, as well as the Parmesan, and simmer, stirring, until heated through.
-
Put the cooked Troodles in a colander and press down to eliminate excess water. Arrange the Troodles in a 9 × 13-inch baking dish and pour on and stir in the meat sauce. Sprinkle with the grated mozzarella, then arrange the pepperoni slices and olives on top. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until bubbly.
Note
From page 135... Trim Healthy Mama Cookbook:
