Hi WIsgal,
I don't know! I've never eaten at Pizza Hut...
My sister - in - law made this for our Family Reunion out of her cookbook. I think after she topped it off with the mozzerella cheese she cooked it longer than 5 mins. because the top was brown and crunchy.
Good idea with the individual boats.. Think I'll do that next time instead of large pan.

Laurie, Is this anything like the Cavatini Pizza Hut use to serve? They use to serve it in individual boat like casseroles (can't think of the name of them) I will be so glad to try this. Think I will use WACKY MAC pasta for it. Thanks
