Easy Pizza Pasta Casserole (OAMC) image

This is a kid pleaser-very cheesy and topped with pepperoni. It makes 2 large (9x13) casseroles or 4 small ones; I often divide it in fourths and freeze 3. This originally came from TOH's Quick Cooking.

I'm not a fan of ricotta cheese, so I substituted cottage cheese instead. It turned out great!
