3 Meat Pizza Casserole

When I ran across this recipe from Cully's Kitchen I quickly put it on our week's menu. I had just made a big batch of homemade spaghetti sauce and I figured this would be a great way to use it.


This is one of those stick-to-your-ribs dishes. Tastes like a pizza, but easier to make!

Ingredients:

• 1 pound bow tie pasta (I used medium shells instead)
• 1 pound bulk pork sausage
• 1 large white onion, chopped
• 2 (26 ounce) jars spaghetti sauce (I used 5 cups of homemade sauce)
• 1 pound cooked ham, cubed
• 1/2 pound sliced pepperoni
• 3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano

1. Preheat oven to 375 F.

2. Cook pasta per package directions. Drain well.

3. Crumble the sausage into a large skillet and cook until browned over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook until tender. Add the garlic and oregano and cook another 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

4. Spray a 9" x 13" baking dish with non-stick spray.

5. Spread out 1/3rd of the pasta. Add 1/3rd of the sauce. Add 1/3rd of the sausage and ham. Sprinkle with 1/3rd of the mozzarella and pasta. Repeat for two more layers. Top with pepperoni.

6. Bake at 375° F for 40 minutes.
