Pizza Casserole

Okay, so another little splurge on this recipe. But, I would consider it a little healthier than pizza, and its easy to make!

You'll need:
1 bag of egg noodles (I bought whole grain!)
1 extra large can of pizza or spaghetti sauce
3 cups of mozzarella cheese (or more if you like cheese)
1 1/2 pounds of hamburger meat (or sausage, turkey meat, etc.)
1 package of turkey pepperoni


Preheat the oven to 350.

Cook your hamburger and noodles.

The rest is layering... I used a cake pan, but you can use a glass dish as well.

Spread a thin layer of sauce,
then half the noodles,
half the meat,
half the sauce,
rest of the noodles,
(somewhere in here, sprinkle in some Italian seasoning!)
half the cheese,
rest of the meat,
rest of the sauce,
rest of the cheese,
and then layer pepperoni on top!


Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
Then, remove the foil and bake for another 15 minutes.

Let it cool for 10 minutes or so - this is important to let everything settle, otherwise it'll just fall apart.
