This makes a ton of food. This is like lasagna without the layers and the work. Serve with salad and garlic bread. Great for a potluck.

I found this casserole to be a bit bland. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

This casserole was a little too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less pepperoni next time.

I added some cooked sausage to this casserole and it was a great addition. I also used a different type of cheese and it turned out really well.

I made this casserole exactly as the recipe said and it turned out great. I used a whole wheat crust and it was still delicious.

This is the best pizza casserole I've ever had. The crust is crispy and the filling is cheesy and flavorful. I highly recommend this recipe!

I'm not a huge fan of pepperoni, but I really enjoyed this casserole. The flavors all worked really well together.

This casserole is too easy not to try! I added some extra cheese to the top and it was *perfection*.
