How to make Pepperoni Pizza Casserole

Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees F. Using non-stick cooking spray, grease the casserole dish and set aside.

Step 2: Following the package directions, cook the pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water. Drain when done and place the pasta back in the pot. Then, add the pizza sauce along with the diced pepperoni and 1 1/2 c mozzarella cheese. Mix well.

Step 3: Into the prepared dish, pour the mixture, and top with the rest of the cheese, pepperoni, and a sprinkle of oregano.

Step 4: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 7 to 10 minutes or until the cheese has melted. Remove from the oven when done, and serve the casserole right away. Enjoy!

Note:

Dice the pepperonis and keep some whole. I find it easier to eat the pepperoni when well combined into the casserole dish. Or use mini pepperoni instead.
