My mom works in a grade school lunchroom. This is an item on their menu from time to time that is super easy to make and my 7 year old daughter LOVES it. It resembles lasagna, but with pizza flavors.
Cook 1 package (8 servings) pasta, whatever shape you like, I am using shells because it was on hand, according to package directions. Brown, crumble and drain a pound of sausage, then stir in most of a jar of spaghetti sauce (reserve about 1/2 cup) and a package of pepperoni slices. Mix the pasta with the meat mixture, pour into a casserole dish, top with remaining sauce and an 8 ounce package of shredded mozzarella cheese. Bake at 350 for 25 minutes.
If I have a container of ricotta cheese, I stir it in with the pasta. Of course you can add whatever pizza toppings your family likes, sausage and pepperoni are the only things we can agree on. Serve with garlic bread and a salad. Yum!
