Pepperoni Pizza Pasta Casserole

The best part about this casserole is that it can be customized based on everyone’s preferences. You can use whatever shaped pasta you like, I had rigatoni on hand. Sausage tastes great in this recipe but ground hamburger would work great too. We aren’t the biggest fans of mushrooms but I know people who love them and a can of sliced mushrooms could easily be added.

When you are baking pasta I always like to cook it al dente, a little firm to the bite because it will continue to cook while the casserole is baking.
