Pizza Casserole

Pizza Casserole

1 16oz pkg pasta (e.g. penne, ziti, etc), cooked
1 lb bulk Italian sausage (regular bulk sausage works well too), cooked and drained
2 (26 oz) jars spaghetti sauce (I like the garden style with veggies already in it)
4 cups (1 lb) *or more shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
*Optional ingredients: quartered pepperoni slices, veggies, olives, etc

Mix all ingredients and half the cheese in a big bowl. Pour into a greased 9x13 casserole dish. Sprinkle remaining cheese over top. Cover loosely with foil. Bake at 350* for one hour.

This makes a great casserole for funerals and missionaries since it’s pretty universal. You can double it easily and use a big disposable foil pan for potlucks.
