Pepperoni Lover’s Dream Pizza Bake

Ingredients Needed:

1 pound of ground beef

1 package of uncooked egg noodles (8 ounces)

Spaghetti sauce, as required (about 16 ounces)

1 can of drained sliced black olives (2.25 ounces)

1 can of drained sliced mushrooms (2.5 ounces)

1 package of coarsely chopped sliced pepperoni (8 ounces)

Shredded mozzarella cheese, split (20 ounces)

How To Make:

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until it’s no longer pink, ensuring to crumble the meat, for approximately 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles until they’re tender yet firm, about 5 minutes. Drain them.

Combine the cooked noodles with the ground beef, spaghetti sauce, drained black olives, mushrooms, pepperoni, and half of the shredded mozzarella cheese in a large mixing bowl.

Spoon the mixture into a 9×13-inch baking dish and sprinkle the remaining cheese on top. Cover the dish with foil.

Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is bubbling, typically for 30 to 45 minutes.

Storing Leftovers:

To store leftovers, simply cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil or plastic wrap, or store individual slices in an airtight container.

Refrigerate for up to 3 days.

When reheating, use the microwave in one-minute increments or reheat in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Keep it covered with aluminum foil to prevent the casserole from drying out.
