Pepperoni Pizza Casserole

Advertisements

A delicious casserole stuffed with cheese and all your favorite pizza toppings. I love serving this with Salad and garlic bread. The leftovers are delicious. I’ve made the recipe ahead of time and took it to potlucks using an slow cooker the next day.

I cooked this for dinner and everyone loved it. I made use of Italian sausage as opposed to ground beef, and angel hair pasta in lieu of egg noodles. I also added pizza sauce in place from spaghetti sauce. We will definitely do it again.

I first saw this recipe on Facebook one day before and gave it a an attempt this evening. I omitted the mushrooms and black olives. I used 1 pound ground beef, as well as precooked noodles. It didn’t seem like an issue doing it this in that way. I really loved the experience.
