Easy Pizza Pasta Recipe

Pizza Pasta RecipesTwo of my favorite meals are pizza and pasta. I recently came across a number of recipes combining the two into pizza pasta. It sounded and looked delicious so I had to give it a try. I combined these recipes and added a few of my own twists.

The original recipes called for ground beef, which I’d love to try next time but was very happy with the subtleness of the diced chicken. Kora & Logan are not big fans of chicken and they didn’t even know they were eating it in this recipe! We all enjoyed this so much that it has jumped into our top 10 favorite family recipes and we can’t wait to make it again.

    This is something my family would LOVE. Anything with pasta, cheese, & red sauce is a winner. Thanks for the recipe!

Hey there! I’m Tesa, the mom behind 2 Wired 2 Tired. The blog got its name because we have two kids born a year apart and my husband, Dave, and I always joked that "the kids were too wired and we were too tired!" :)

Fast forward a bit—now the kids are off to college (how did that happened so fast!) and since 2009, I’ve been blogging through the chaos, coffee in hand, finding the best in family, travel, and tech—because honestly, who has time for bad gadgets and boring trips?

So, whether you're searching for family travel inspiration, tech gadgets, or tips to enhance family life, you're in the right place because the fun (and the coffee) is always brewing around here!
