post used to be good. I do not realize who you are but

Cheers!

I’m thinking of freezing extra spaghetti sauce in ice cube trays. Seems like a cube would be about the right amount to grab for one serving. I like this pizza idea for a snack when my husband gets the munchies about 9:00 p.m.

Look in the freezer section of your grocery store for frozen biscuits. You can just take out however you need and leave the rest in the freezer. You would have to let them thaw for this recipe but it’s better than wasting food.
Sue Marie says
If I have too much of an item, I try to find another recipe to use so as not to waste it. For example, I use this same type of biscuit for chicken and dumplings. Comes out awesome!
The Typical Mom says
Awesome

What would be other options for the crust? I live alone and wouldn’t want to open a tube of biscuits. I might have to try using part of a package of Pizza crust mix. Could you use a little Bisquick. Has anyone tried anything different?
Tammy says
Frozen yeast rolls (raw) would be great and, like the frozen biscuits, could be taken out of the freezer one-at-a-time.
