Sausage and Pepperoni Pizza Casserole
From: Katie @ www.clarkscondensed.com/
It’s very simple to throw together, and it has some great flavor. I always like using bow tie pasta or penne, but that’s up to you. I would recommend using a small pasta like one of those, rather than something like linguine or spaghetti noodles. I always like using a spaghetti sauce that has lots of vegetables in it.
I’ve seen some pizza casserole recipes that have ham in them…but I don’t like ham, so this one just has sausage and pepperoni (and some other yummy ingredients, like mushrooms, onions, and peppers…though those are optional.) This casserole can easily be frozen (I would just cover it when you freeze it, and then take it out about 12-24 hours before you want to cook it and put in the fridge) and is perfect for pot lucks and parties!
Ingredients
1 pound Italian Sausage
1 Jar spaghetti sauce
oregano
basil
garlic
20 pepperoni slices
¼ cup onion, chopped
¼ cup green or red pepper
1½ cups penne
1 cup mozzarella
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Bring a pot of water to a boil.
Cook pasta until done.
Cook sausage in large pan, drain of excess grease, and put back in pan.
Add spaghetti sauce, oregano, basil, garlic, onion, and peppers to the pan as well.
Mix well and set to simmer.
Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on the bottom of a 9x13 pan.
Place a layer of noodles, then layer sauce on top of that.
Place about ½ cup of mozzarella on top of that.
Repeat.
On top of the final layer of cheese, place a layer of pepperonis.
Bake for 20-25 minutes.
bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes
