My grandmother used to fix this yummy dish for my Girl Scout troop when I was growing up. Now, I make it for my stepdaughters’ scout troop. It's easy to prepare, and the girls always beg me to make it —Kimberly Howland, Fremont, Michigan

This was a great recipe. It makes lots of food. My BF and I ate dinner one night and each of us had lunch for 4 days afterwards. Very filling. I thought the garlic was a bit too prominent, but still delicious.

Yummy!! This was a big hit in my family. It made a huge amount but it got gobbled up. I made it exactly as posted but I might try a large jar of spaghetti sauce instead of the pizza sauce next time.

This recipe is great, I have made this many times since finding it a few months ago. My husband and 3 kids love it. I took it too a church dinner and everyone is asking for the recipe. I never mix the meat sauce with the pasta, I put it on top as directed and I only use 2 cups of cheese on top and 1 pound of ground beef, it's cuts the cost in half and still taste great.

wow this was yummy!!!! What a nice "change" and something different - easy to always have the ingredients on hand too! I used 1/2 parmesan and romano and used grated instead of shredded... also rather than layering i too mixed the meat mixture in w/the pasta rather than put only on top - i think it blends better that way! VERY yummy and will be a go to recipe! :)

I'm always looking for new pasta dishes to make. When I found this one I had to make it. So I made it tonight for my family. I have two kids 11 and 4. They absolutely loved it, my 11 year old even asked if he could take some to school tomorrow for his lunch.

I changed it just a tad bit, instead of using strictly ground beef, I used 1 pound of hot Italian sausage and 1 pound of ground beef, just to give it extra flavor. I seasoned my meat with garlic powder and Lawrys seasoning salt.

I also used the amount of pizza sauce it called for, but thought it could have used just a little more sauce. Then again I like my food saucy.

Overall it was delicious...plus my kiddos loved it!!!

I think I will try it with mushrooms next time with pepperoni's because my husband doesn't care for pepperoni's. My boys loved it though.

Was a good pot luck casserole I seasoned the ground beef with 2 cloves of minced garlic, italian seasoning, and basil. I also doubled the pepperoni and layered that, but mixed the sause with the pasta.

I was looking for recipes to use up a pasta stockpile & came across this one. I had all the ingredients on hand & it looked like something my family would love. It turned out perfectly! I read in the other reviews to go ahead & mix in your sauce instead of layering it, so I did. The result was fantastic! My husband and children loved it & my husband is usually not a fan of pasta dishes. This had a great pizza flavor & is completely satisfying! Thanks for sharing the recipe.
