PIZZA LOAF

Pizza Loaf image

I'll always be thankful for the help my mother-in-law gave me when I first moved out to the farm. The sure-to-please recipes made a big adjustment easier. After all, dinnertime is often the only time a farm family can spend together...the meals had better turn out! Thanks to recipes like this one, my meals have been a "hit" much more often than a "miss."-Ruth Tacoma, Falmouth, Michigan
