Macaroni & Cheese Pizza image

"Kids love this recipe! What could be better than pizza and mac 'n' cheese all in one meal? Toppings are easily changed to suit individual tastes. To simplify things, use a can of pizza sauce instead of the tomato sauce, oregano and basil." Jenny Staniec - Oak Grove, Minnesota
