Notes
I like to make this dish in my 12-inch non-stick casserole pan. It’s great because it comes with a tight-fitting lid. Plus, this makes a big batch and it all fits in there. I serve it right out of the pan. Just one pan to wash and clean up is a breeze!

Hi Amy – first of all I Love your blog! Thank you! Some of your recipes shared are similar to ones that I have, I always look forward to what you post because I know there will be something I will want to make 😉 Excited to make the skillet pasta pizza for my grandkids however, my 6 year old granddaughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes 6 months ago. We need to count her carbs as she is insulin dependent. Do you know how we can figure this out? I am hoping there is an app that is out there that we can use to help with recipes?!
Thank you in advance.
