Pizza Spaghetti

Course Main Course
Cuisine Italian
Servings 6

Ingredients

  • 1 jar marinara sauce your favorite or homemade
  • pasta gluten-free pasta works fine
  • 1/2 lb ground beef cooked, optional
  • pepperoni optional
  • 1-2 cups mozzarella cheese
  • olives, sausage, ham, etc optional
  • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Cook pasta (any kind works: angel hair, spaghetti, rotini, etc) for a 1-2 minutes less than pkg directions. (ie if instructions say to cook for 8 minutes, cook for 6-7)
  • Warm marinara sauce in a saucepan. Add cooked ground beef to sauce, if using.
  • Place a small amount of sauce on bottom of whatever baking pan you're using. I use a 9x13 for five of us with leftovers. (see notes)
  • Layer in pasta, mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, and any other ingredients until the pan is full or the ingredients are gone. The last two layers should be sauce and mozzarella cheese.
  • Sprinkle the parmesan cheese on top.
  • Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 25-30 minutes until bubbly and cheese is slightly browned. (Can be cooked for less time since all of the ingredients are pre-cooked, but the baking process allows the flavors to meld.)
  • Let sit for a few minutes, so you don't burn your mouth eating it. ;)

Notes

If you want to feed fewer people, use less of the ingredients and a smaller pan.
We use gluten-free pasta and marinara sauce. Check your labels.
