  • “Didn’t like the sound of the fennel at all, but included it anyway.Wow, am I glad that I did!This really came out very good.I might have gone a little cheese crazy, but it was very yummy.It was very good and very thick, going perfectly with the home made garlic bread.Great idea; thank you for posting!”

  • “I am not a fondue person but, my kids loved this recipe!I did not use fennel seeds for my kids taste>I cook everynight for my family and usually gourmet but this really is fun.My hubby needed pasta and let the kids have the fondue.Try it!”

  • “This was a big hit at Euchre….Great dip, I did change the meat though, I used Turkey Italian sausage and some mini pepperoni in it instead of beef…it turned out fabulous….”

  • “We decided to have a fondue night so I made a half recipe. Served with cheese filled tortellini, toasted garlic bread and Italian bread. I did add some diced pepperoni to up the pizza flavour.It was excellent, and my son just loved it. Thx Lainie!”

  • “We had so much fun with this!We served it with cubes of focaccia bread and toasted raviolis.I wanted something fun for the kids to introduce them to fondue and this was a great hit.Thank you.”

  • “This was a delicious recipe!!! For Valentine’s Day, 2009, we had a big fondue party over at our house! We invited our friends to come over at 5:30 in the evening dressed as people from the 70s for an awesome dinner of fondue. We had fun with some 70s trivia,and then sat down for “The Muppet Show” and “The Electric Company”. We had an absolute blast!!!”

  • “This was great! I did leave out the fennel seeds (personally dislike) and I didn’t have any cornstarch but it still turned out delicious. We’ve made this several times since. My children LOVE it!”

  • “Although, I didn’t use all the ingredients…I thought this was a great idea!I just had pizza sauce (with spices and sausage in it) and added some cheese.Thanks for the idea! It turned out great!”

  • “I don’t know why but this seemed a little bland to my husband and I.We thought next time, we’ll add small diced pepperoni, and more mozzerella and less cheddar.”

  • “This was a great meal for my family.My kids hovered over the fondue pot and were getting upset with whoever was dipping in because they were “taking too much”.LOLI will be making this again!Thank you so much for a crowd pleaser!I also didnt use fennel seeds because I didnt have any, and I wil remember next time to add it!”

  • “Inspired by this recipe, I created my own vegan version.I used about 8 oz. of Smart Grounds (ground beef alternative), about 1/2 cup leftover spaghetti sauce, a can of diced tomatoes, 10 oz. of Vegan Gourmet brand mozzarella “cheese” (cubed), onion powder, garlic powder, basil, and oregano.Since Smart Grounds are already cooked, I just plopped all the ingredients in the fondue pot, covered it with foil, and stirred frequently until the “cheese” melted.It was absolutely delicious and my meat-eating husband agreed!It was almost fat-free and 100% cholesterol-free and I don’t think anyone would guess it was vegan without knowing.Thanks for posting this; it’s a great springboard of a recipe!”

  • “We like to try new fondues.And this one is amazing.It tastes like pizza.I didn’t use fennel seeds.I used oregano and basil.”

  • “I didn’t add any of the spices since I thought my pizza sauce was pretty good already (forgot which recipe I used for it).I only used mozzarella cheese, but it still came out very good.The leftovers were just as tasty, although they didn’t look very nice.I served this with breadsticks, thanks!”

  • “I didn’t follow much on this recipe, but it inspired me to my own version. I took jar’d spagehtti sauce and put it in an electric fondue pot and dipped prepared meatballs (thought meatballs would be more fun since we could use the dipping stick more often) and garlic breadsticks in it. Very yummy and a big hit. Not sure how to rate this, since I didn’t use many of the ingredients, but wanted to give you the credit because if I wouldn’t have seen this recipe, I would have never thought to do a Italian/pizza fondue. Thanks!!! :-)”

  • “Made it for my kids they loved it.Had leftover so I took a pizza crust spread the rest over and baked in the oven.Awesome.I also added my seasonings to the hamburg and onion mix while it was cooking, just habit, taste comes out better”

  • “This was a real fun meal for the kids. It was our first attempt at fondue with the kids and they loved every minute of it. I used “Papa John’s Pizza” Pizza Sauce #108447 for the sauce. I think next time I will leave out the fennel as it gave a different flavour to the sauce that I did not really like. I have added this recipe to my “recipes to use ground beef mix” because that is what I used for the ground beef.”

  • “Good, basic recipe, but a little bland. Would suggest flavoring it with basil and oregano to start.”

  • “My 3 boys loved this. I had some plain bagels to cut up and dip. I did use jarred pasta sauce instead of the pizza sauce-but I would have used the same to make pizzas. This was easy to make and I will make it again!”
