• 1 3/4 cups milk
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon white sugar

1. Preheat waffle iron. Beat eggs in large bowl with hand beater until fluffy. Beat in flour, milk, vegetable oil, sugar, baking powder, salt, and vanilla, just until smooth.
2. Spray preheated waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray. Pour mix onto hot waffle iron. Cook until golden brown. Serve hot.

Pizza In The Round

Way back in the day I used to be a Pampered Chef consultant.  This recipe used to be one of my favorites to make cause it is so simple to put together.  Also most of the items you usually have on hand.  This is very similar to my recipe of Taco Ring.  They are both winners.

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 1 medium green pepper
• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 clove garlic pressed
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 (7 1/2 oz) can pizza sauce, divided
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 packages crescent rolls
• 2 TBSP fresh parmesan cheese

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375.
2. Cut top off green pepper, remove stem, discard membrane & seeds.
3. Reserve bottom of pepper (to serve pizza sauce in later).
4. Chop the top of the pepper to make 1/4 of a cup.
5. Chop onion.
6. Cook ground beef, green pepper, onion and garlic in skillet over med-high heat until meat is no longer pink.
7. Remove from heat& drain.
8. Shred mozzarella cheese, combine meat mixture & cheese, 1/4 cup of the pizza sauce, Italian seasoning & salt.
9. To assemble the ring: Unroll crescent dough, separate into 16 triangles.
10. Arrange triangles in a circle on a round baking/pizza pan, with wide ends of triangles overlapping in the center & the points of the dough towards the outside. There should be approximately a 5 inch diameter in the center of the pan.
11. Scoop meat mixture evenly onto widest end of each triangle.
12. Bring points of triangles up over meat filling and tuck under the wide ends of the dough at the center of the ring.
13. (Filling will not be completely covered.) Bake 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
14. Grate fresh parmesan cheese over top with cheese grater.
15. Heat remaining pizza sauce and fill green pepper bottom, place in center of the ring.
16. To serve, cut into wedges & serve with the pizza sauce.
