Satisfying kids with food can be a lot tasky as they can be very picky with food they like at times, for my kids to love and always request for this recipe, that means that it is a winner for kids. At times, I make this recipe for special occasions too, like christmas, picnic, dinner, holiday, parties, and other events without stress.
My grandma doesn’t like pizzas, but this Pepperoni Pizza Casserole is just an exception for her, she loved the flavor, tastes, aroma and everything and she couldn’t talk about how I changed her from a non-pizza lover to a Pepperoni Pizza Casserole lover.
