I just threw it all together as I went along. I knew I wanted to bake a pasta casserole of some kind. I noticed I had shell pasta & mozzarella cheese on hand...as well as spaghetti sauce and pepperoni. So this recipe was just born tonight! I'm sure other people have come up with recipes very similar to this but this is so easy and few ingredients!
Pepperoni Pizza Casserole
2-3 cups dry shell pasta (or any pasta)
1/2 can (large can like Hunt's) spaghetti sauce, any flavor (you could add more sauce if you want)
1 cup mozzarella cheese (or more cheese if you want)
1/2 block of cream cheese, softened (from an 8oz block, so that'd make it 4 oz cheese)
1/2 cup to 1 cup chopped pepperoni (or you could substitute cooked italian sausage or whatever you like)
Boil pasta until al dente. While the pasta is boiling, mix the other three ingredients in a 2 quart casserole dish, and preheat oven to 350F. Drain pasta and mix with the other ingredients in the casserole dish. Bake for about 30 minutes.
That's it! So easy and so yummy. Serve with a nice salad and garlic bread. :)
