Lasagna Pizza sounds a bit odd I know, but my kids loved this. This is definitely going to be on the menu plan again soon.
It is really just a cross between lasagna and pizza. Basically, the noodles are your crust and it works perfectly. It was so different from normal pizza and yet it was so good.
Instructions
Cover a greased jelly roll pan, or really any basic 11×17 or similar type cookie sheet with sides, with 1/2 of the cooked noodles.
Sprinkle half of the cheese on top of the noodles.
Top with remaining noodles.
Spread sauce on top of noodles.
Bake at 375 for 12 minutes.
Remove from oven and top with pepperoni, parmesan cheese, and remaining mozzarella cheese.
Bake 15 minutes more.
Let sit 5-10 minutes before serving.

What kind of gluten free noodles do you use? I have had some bad experiences with GF lasagna noodles… 🙂
@Emily @ Our Frugal Happy Life, This is the brand I used. They are not quite the same, but we liked them. This is my favorite brand of gf pasta to use for most things. https://www.amazon.com/Tinkyada-Brown-Pasta-Gluten-Lasagne/dp/B001RCQZW2/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=hpc&qid=1285033608&sr=8-2
I hope that helps.
@Lynn, I have tried Tinkyada but not in awhile. I can’t remember which ones were bad [for me] – although I’m sure the problem was me!
How do you cook your lasagna noodles? and for how long? I know too long would make for a nice mess! 🙂
Thanks!
@Emily @ Our Frugal Happy Life, I follow the basic directions on the box, but I so agree timing is everything with GF pasta. I watch it closely when it is cooking. I don’t walk away like I used to from pasta when it is cooking.
@Emily @ Our Frugal Happy Life, I don’t like to boil the lasagna noodles, I soak them in hot tap water for 20-30 minutes before layering the lasagna. Otherwise I find the gf noodles break and are way too hard to handle. I have used several different brands now, and they all seem to work much better this way. Might be worth trying.
this sounds so unique & tasty! i’ll have to try it. 🙂
Oh, we will definately have to try this!
