I have adapted this from a recipe that we ate growing up that was given to my parents by a family friend. I took it from simple to gourmet with just adding a few ingredients. You can easily make this a vegetarian dish by omitting the ground meat and the pepperoni. I tend to use sausage more than beef because it gives more flavor' but I suggest you try it out for yourself!

Ingredients For pizza casserole

  • 1 lb
    ground beef or sausage
  • 2-3 c
    egg noodles or twists (rotini)
  • 1/2 can
    chopped onions, divided
  • 2 can
    pizza sauce, divided
  • 1 can
    mushroom pieces, drained
  • 1 pkg
    pepperoni (small ones are better)

How To Make pizza casserole

  • 1
    Brown meat, add some onions to it for flavor. I use sausage but beef works just as well.
  • 2
    Boil noodles according to package directions, drain
  • 3
    Mix cooked meat with the remainder of the onions, half of the pepperoni, mushrooms and one can of pizza sauce and 1/2 to 3/4 cup of cheese
  • 4
    Spread meat mixture on the bottom of a 9 X 13 pan. I prefer to use glass pan because it cleans up so much easier.
  • 5
    Mix noodles with remaining pepperoni, 1/2 to 3/4 cup cheese and remaining pizza sauce
  • 6
    Spread noodle mixture evenly over meat mixture
  • 7
    Top with remaining cheese and bake in 350 oven for 25 to 30 minutes until everything is cooked through and cheese is melted
