PEPPERONI PIZZA MAC CASSEROLE
Try using 2 jars of pizza sauce instead of 1 jar and the can of tomatoes. This will give the finished dish more of a "pizza" flavor. Try adding other pizza toppings you may like (mushrooms, ham, use Italian sausage instead of ground beef, etc.). The possibilities are endless!

Steps:
- 1. Cook meat, onion and green pepper in a 4-5 quart Dutch oven over medium high heat, stirring often, until meat is crumbly and no longer pink (about 10-12 minutes).
- 2. Add the pizza sauce, tomatoes, garlic and Italian seasoning and cooked macaroni. Mix well and cook another 4-5 minutes to heat through.
- 3. Meanwhile, heat oven to 350 degrees F.
- 4. Line the bottom of an 8" X 8" glass baking dish with a single layer of pepperoni slices. Spoon 1/2 of the macaroni mixture over the pepperoni. Spread evenly.
- 5. Top with 1/2 of the remaining pepperoni and sprinkle with 1/2 of the cheese.
- 6. Spoon remaining macaroni mixture over all and spread evenly. Top with remaining pepperoni (pushing gently into the macaroni mixture) and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
- 7. Sprinkle with additional Italian seasoning. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
