Pizza Pasta Skillet

Pizza Pasta Skillet - sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms, pasta, sauce and cheese - ready in 15 minutes! Quick and easy weeknight meal!

This dish combines two of my favorite foods – pizza and pasta.  We absolutely LOVED this!  I think it was the fresh mozzarella that really put this over the top for us.  I wanted to eat the entire skillet of pasta myself.

This is surprisingly simple to make.  It uses a jar of pasta sauce.  Everything is cooked in the skillet and the cheese and pepperoni are browned under the broiler.  This pasta can be customized to your family’s tastes.  I used sausage, mushrooms and mini pepperoni.  Add your favorite pizza toppings to the pasta – ham, olives, peppers, onions.  This makes a ton.  Fortunately, it is great reheated the next day.  This is definitely going into the regular dinner rotation!
