Crock pot lasagna

this is sctaylor's recipe from the love to cook team. Hope you don't mind me plugging it in, sc. 8 servings is exactly right for this recipe. We have a 6.5 quart round crockpot, so cut it pie-shaped. I agree with the person who said the added salt was unnecessary, so I'm removing it. It is very good without it. Using no-salt added tomato products, I hope, will cut the sodium even more - I'll amend again next time I try it!Submitted by: LEAKAY59

Hawaiian Pizza

Pizza is one of my favorite foods, and the sweet sauce at Papa John's is my all-time favorite. My viewpoint is, if you're going to make it at home, don't make it "just as good," make it better! So I'm remaking a medium Papa John's pie with pineapple, onion and bacon(BACON!!!). Fresh homemade sauce and premium ingredients make this recipe more than worth the calories, and still trimmer than the fast food original!Submitted by: KRAMTHEGRAM
