Google for College or Easy recipes. Here are a couple of web sites to
get you started

Pizza Scramble
http://italian.betterrecipes.com/pizzascramble.html

Italian sausage, onion, green pepper and tomato sauce is spread in a
baking dish, sprinkled with cheese and topped with a parmesan cheese
batter.

Ingredients:

* 1 pound bulk Italian sausage
* 1 medium onion, chopped
* 1/4 cup chopped green pepper
* 2 Tablespoons plus 1 cup flour, divided
* 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
* 1/2 teaspoon fennel seed, crushed
* 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
* 2 cups (8 ounce) shredded mozzarella cheese
* 2 eggs
* 1 cup milk
* 1 Tablespoon oil
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Method

In a skillet, cook sausage, onion and green pepper over medium-high
heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the 2 Tablespoons
flour, the basil and fennel seed. Add tomato sauce. Bring to a boil;
cook and stir for 1 minute. Transfer to an ungreased 9x13-inch baking
dish. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Place remaining flour in a
mixing bowl. Beat in the eggs, milk, oil and salt until smooth; stir
in Parmesan cheese. Pour over casserole. Bake uncovered, at 425
degrees for 25 to 30 minutes or until browned.

Notes: This goes nicely with a tossed green salad and crusty bread.


OK - Here's the way I'd make it... I'd definitely eliminate the flour
and oil, plus I'd save the tomato sauce for a topping if I used it at
all. Then I'd switch the measures for parmesan and mozzarella or
combine the amounts and just use a 3 cheese preshredded Italian blend.
Last, I'd substitute a cup of whole eggs for the milk, but milk is
cheaper - so you decide.
