This is my own personal creation that I have worked with for over 25 years now.
Leftovers are good too!
2 jars Ragu Pizza Quick Sauce or other pizza sauce. (I use traditional.. your choice)
1 Pkg sliced Pepperoni
1/2 - 3/4 pound box of Elbow Macaroni Cooked and drained according to instructions
1 pkg Mozzarella cheese
1 pound Browned cooked ground beef. (I prefer Ground Chuck)
Mix together in a casserole dish, cooked ground beef, noodles and pizza sauce.
Stir in some pepperoni and mix well.
You can also mix in some cooked mushrooms, diced ham, Italian sausage, etc if desired.
Leave about a 1/4 inch from top of dish to allow for Pepperoni and cheese to be layered on top.
Cook at 350 until cheese melts good.
