Pizza Casserole

I simply HAVE to post this recipe. It's so very yummy. I'm eating it right now. :p

Pizza Casserole

This is so simple, cheap and FILLING...This is such a filling dinner that a 13 x 9 pan, gave our family of 4, three nights of dinner plus my husband taking it in his lunch.

  • 3 boxes GENERIC Mac-n-cheese (prepared as directed)
  • 1 jar spaghetti sauce (use the smaller size jar)
  • 1/2 lb. sliced pepperoni
  • 1 lb. shredded mozzarella cheese

  1. While mac-n-cheese is still in pan (already prepared as directed) pour in the jar of spaghetti sauce and mix throroughly. (when you make 3 boxes at one time, the water does get a bit white and starchy, but it won't affect the outcome)
  2. In a 9 x 13 pan, pour in 1/2 of the mac-n-cheese & sauce mixture and spread to cover bottom of pan. Top that with a single layer of pepperoni, and sprinkle 1/2 of mozzarella cheese on. Then spread the other half of the mac-n-cheese mixture carefully over the bottom layer. Again layer pepperoni and cheese.
  3. Bake at 375 for about 20 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbling.

Serve this with dinner rolls or garlic bread for a really great meal. It will feed ALOT so it's great for a family gathering or group.It's amazing AND tasted JUST like pizza, so kids will love it as well!

Dear anonymous....

I simply don't know. I do know that I'm on a budget for the first time in my 31 years of life, and it's hard. But I want to live debt free, so I have to be on a budget.

Quick and easy and cheap recipe:

Boil 2 cups of water. In a separate pan, fry one cup of long grain rice. Add boiling water, cover, reduce heat to simmer, and cook for 15 minutes. Add 2 eggs lightly beaten, about 2 cups of frozen peas, and about 1-2 cups of cubed ham. Cook until peas are done - maybe 4 minutes? Add soy sauce to taste. Yummy. Quick, cheap, and filling.
