Natty in the left, Za in the Right.

Ok, so not the most elegant dish, but it was damn good. In Madison, we all love Ian's Pizza. [Fade out to freshman year] Its 2:30am, the shop is packed with a line out the door and to the end of the block. For some reason my shirt is soaked and all we're looking for is some carbs to absorb the excessive amounts of keystone we've just induced at that kegger with those people dressed in animal costumes, that guy shouting FRESHMAN! DO SOMETHING CRAZY! KEG STAND! Man, I wished taped it... I'm going to stop myself there. 

Ian's speciality is its Mac & Cheese Pizza. So, when Sarah and I found ourselves unbearablty hungry and unwilling to shop, we looked in our pantry and found the following:

Pesto (or make it your own: Basil, Pinenuts, Garlic, Parmesian, Olive Oil)
Tomato Sauce (or make it your own: Tomatoe paste and spices)
Pizza Crusts (or make it your own: flour, yeast, water, corn meal, sugar...) 
Tomatoes
Mushrooms
Macaroni Pasta
Garlic
Olive Oil
Cheese (we used shredded mozzerella and chedder).

Other possibilities include: Red Onions, Goat Cheese, Basil, Hot Sauce, anything else you want on your za.

We made two pizzas: One with pesto sauce, the other with tomato sauce. 

PESTO PIZZA: Spread the pesto thinly on the crust, layer with tomatoes (season with salt and pepper) and mushrooms. Cover with cooked pasta and sprinkle cheese on top
TOMATO SAUCE PIZZA: Spread olive oil and garlic on crust, spread tomato sauce thinly on next, layer with tomatoes (season with salt and pepper) and mushrooms. Cover in cooked pasta and sprinkle cheese on top. 

Bake in oven at 450ยบ until cheese is melted and just about to turn golden brown. 
Grab a cold natty ice from the fridge and enjoy. Maybe watch the 4 hour extended addition of Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.
