Pepperoni Pasta Bake
Some food humor…Have a nice weekend Ladies & Gents.
Little Johnny and his family lived in the country, and as a result seldom had guests. He was eager to help his mother after his father appeared with two dinner guests from the office.
When the dinner was nearly over, Little Johnny went to the kitchen and proudly carried in the first piece of apple pie, giving it to his father who passed it to a guest. Little Johnny came in with a second piece of pie and gave it to his father, who again gave it to a guest.
This was too much for Little Johnny, who said, "It's no use, Dad. The pieces are all the same size."
INGREDIENTS
• 1 lb spiral noodles
• 1/2 pound lean ground beef
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 red bell pepper, chopped
• 1 whole pepperoni log, medium dice (skin removed)
• 14-16 ounces pizza sauce (found in pasta sauce section)
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cook noodles according to package directions.
In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef with the onion, garlic and green bell pepper. Drain excess fat. Stir in the noodles, pepperoni, pizza sauce, and mix well. Pour this mixture into a 2-quart casserole dish.
Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 20 minutes, top with the cheese, then bake for 5 to 10 more minutes.
“ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh”

Your tile always looks sparkling clean. I need to go home and scrub my tub.
"Pasta" and "bake" used in the same title always yields postive, comfort-y results. Mmmm.
Wow, Jen, this looks so yummy! Thanks for yet another delicious dinner idea. My husband, like lots of the ladies here have already said, would go nutso for this!
This looks great! The pepperoni must give it such a nice flavor. My grandmother used to put pepperoni in her pasta sauce; this reminds me of that:)

Very cute story...that's how it is at my house, everyone jocking for the biggest piece.
