Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz Penne pasta
- 1 lb Ground Italian sausage
- 1 cup Pepperoni slices
- 1 medium Green bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
- 0.5 cup Sliced black olives, drained
- 1 cup Mushrooms, sliced
- 3 cups Pizza sauce
- 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the penne pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente, according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground Italian sausage and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the diced bell peppers, onion, and mushrooms. Sauté for 5-7 minutes or until tender. Stir in the garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Remove from heat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta, sausage, sautéed vegetables, pizza sauce, and black olives. Mix well to combine.
In a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, spread half of the pasta mixture in an even layer. Sprinkle with half of the shredded mozzarella cheese and half of the Parmesan cheese.
Layer with half of the pepperoni slices, then repeat with the remaining pasta mixture, cheeses, and pepperoni slices as the final topping.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Supreme Pizza Casserole!
