Upside Down Pizza

From what I gather, Meme's Upside Down Pizza was one of Pepe's favorite's.  A crowd pleaser for any age group, it's fun to make and fun to eat. So, I don't blame him if it was on his favorites list (although, between Meme's knack for cooking and Pepe's complimentary personality and adoration of Meme, I'm sure he had a lot of favorites).  













I browned the meat, chopped the veggies, sprinkled in the cheese and sauce and wondered "what defines this as a pizza?".  The answer finally dawned on me as I rolled out the sheet of crescents.  I was thrilled with the revelation that the triangular perforations really do define this, precisely as an upside down pizza! It was hearty and delicious and luckily, lasted us for a few days.




1 lb. ground turkey
1/4 cup chopped celery
1/2 tsp. garlic salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 1/2 cup veggies of choice
2 cups tomato sauce
8 oz. shredded mozzarella 
8 oz. can crescent rolls


Saute turkey, celery and seasoning.  Pour into 9"x13" pan.  Top with veggies, tomato sauce and cheese.  Cover with crescent rolls (flat, not rolled).  Bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes.  


Note: Our veggies of choice were broccoli, green and red bell peppers and mushrooms.
