1 lb hamburger

1 C spaghetti sauce

1 can or 1 C fresh, mushrooms

1 C ricotta (or cottage) cheese

1 egg beaten

Mozzarella cheese - grated

pepperoni

onion to taste

black olives - optional

Instructions:

Brown the beef and onions

Add spaghetti sauce and mushrooms and  some Italian seasoning

Simmer 10 minutes

In a bowl

Mix ricotta (cottage) cheese, egg and 1/4 mozz cheese, Italian seasoning

Grease square baking dish - I use spray coconut oil or olive oil

Spread some of the grated cheese for crust

Lay out 16 pieces of pepperoni

Spread beef mixture over the top

Spread the cheese mixture from the bowl over the top of that

Spread black olives on top of that mixture

Spread another 16  pieces of pepperoni on top

Sprinkle the last of the grated cheese over the top

NOTES: I usually end up putting in more cottage cheese to cover better

I grate more cheese, and sometimes combine Mozz. cheese and Cheddar cheese together to make more.

I make my own spaghetti sauce but you can use bottled if you wish

Making sugar-free apple crisp.


I make home made apple sauce. Cut up the peeled and cored apples and cook them in a small amount of water, un...til soft and most of the water is gone.


Add cinnamon only and use a potato masher to mash them. I make mine chunky, especially if I'm using it in crisp. Let cool


Spray olive oil (Pam now makes olive oil instead of that bad stuff) into a square pan.


put the cooled apple sauce in the bottom, saving a bit in a small bowl set aside. even it out in the pan.


Open a sugar-free white or yellow cake mix. I usually buy cupcake size, because I will use all of it.


Cover the apple sauce with a half of the regular sized cake mix and even out.


Cut pats of butter to cover the top. I use 16 pats in a square pan.


Put in oven at 350 degrees and bake until the top is nice and brown. I like mine kind of dark brown.


(Depending on the oven but it can take anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour but check it after a half hour)


Take the small bowl that was set aside to the computer and eat while the rest is baking.


We squirt a bit of sugar free caramel on top and whipping cream made with sugar substitute.
