GERMAN OKTOBERFEST PIZZA

Steps:

• Unroll dough into a greased 15x10x1" baking pan; flatten dough and build up edges slightly.
• Bake at 425 for 5 minutes or until very lightly golden brown.
• Meanwhile, in a large skillet, saute kielbasa in butter until browned. (You can omit the butter to save your waistline. I did and we didn't miss it).
• Spread mashed potatoes over crust.
• Spread spicy brown mustard over potatoes.
• Top with sauerkraut, kielbasa, cheese and caraway seeds.
• Bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown. Broil for a few minutes if you need to brown the cheese.

GERMAN PIZZA

Steps:

• In a 12 inch stove top or an electric skillet, over medium heat, brown beef with onion, green pepper, 1/2 teaspoons salt and pepper. Remove meat mixture from skillet and drain. Reduce heat to low. Melt margarine. Spread potatoes over margarine and sprinkle with remaining salt. Top with beef mixture. Combine eggs and milk. Pour over all. Cook covered about 30 minutes. Top with cheese. Cover and heat until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Cut into wedges or squares to serve Top each serviing with a dollop of sour cream. (I use the fat free sour cream and it tastes just the same in casseroles and other dishes).

PFAFFENGLUECK ("PARSON'S LUCK") GERMAN COLD PIZZA

Steps:

• Mix together creme fraiche and slivered onions well and season to taste with salt (about 2 shakes), pepper (about 8 shakes), and apple cider vinegar- using an ordinary eating teaspoon to measure the vinegar.
• Add a small pinch of sugar to taste- just a small amount- you don't want this to be a sweet dish.
• Chill 10 minutes while you prepare the bread and get out your toppings.
• Try to have your Kraeuterfladbrot slightly warm (freshly baked and slightly cooled is best)- and split them horizontally (like an English Muffin would be cut)- into 2 flat rounds each (NOTE: If using pita rounds, then don't split them - use a whole pita per serving).
• Spread each of the 4 rounds with an equal portion of the creamy onion mixture- you might not need it all (cover like a pizza sauce).
• Sprinkle each pizza with shredded cheese evenly, to taste.
• Sprinkle mushrooms, corn or diced ham over the top, to taste (these would not be mixed, but you know- it's your kitchen- if you want to combine several toppings, go for it).
• Sprinkle with bacon rather heavily, to taste- about a Tbsp on top of each.
• Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley, trying to get a small mound of it in the center.
• Serve immediately- these are not heated.
