How to Make Pizza Casserole:

- half of the pizza sauce
- half of the shredded cheese
- the remaining half of the noodles
- the remaining half of the ground chuck

Our Baking Essential List:
- For baking casseroles, we use Glass Baking Dishes. I especially like the dishes with lids so leftovers can be transferred straight to the fridge.
- Silicone Kitchenware is my favorite because they don’t scratch my cookware and are super easy to clean!
- To prepare all of those ingredients a Glass Cutting Board is a must. We even keep ours on our counter at all times.
- This Knife Set will also become your favorite! They cut beautifully and with the hollow design of the knife, food doesn’t stick to the blade.

Patti says
If you were to make this and freeze it, would you freeze before you cook it? or after? What do you think would be better?
Ed says
Looks good I am giving my wife a break from trying to figurewhat to have for dinner
C. Wise says
It sounds a lot like lasagna. I’m sure it is yummy. Another recipe like this uses the frozen ravioli with cheese. You can use so many different variations. Just think out of the box and have fun.
Amber says
My family likes this casserole, but we use 1 pound ground beef and 1 pound Italian sausage for more flavor 🙂
Amber says
I also throw in some basil, oregano, garlic powder and thyme in the meat while browning it.
Alisha says
Where in the order are you supposed to put the first half of the cheeses?
Katie says
Alisha, thanks for catching my oops. I have added it to the recipe but it after the first half of pizza sauce.
Angela Blankinship says
We’ve been making this dor yrs. Before that my father in law made it. We use left over spaghetti sauce and spaghetti noodles.
Kasey says
I think you may have over compensated the meat and noodles. I didn’t have enough room for all of it. Also there is no way to fit 2 packs of pepperoni on there trust me I tried lol. We’re pepperoni lovers In our house. It’s in the oven as I type. I’ve got high hopes.
