Upside Down Pizza

I made this recipe for a girl's night and it was a hit! There was so much flavor and cheesy goodness in this that I didn't want to stop eating it! Just like the Pizza Burgers, you could add your favorite pizza toppings in this casserole (or whatever you have on hand). I love casseroles for that reason!
