Description

Ingredients

• 1 (8 ounce) package Penne noodles, cooked to package instructions
• 2 (24 ounce) jars traditional spaghetti sauce
• 1 pound ground Italian sausage
• ½ pound bacon, chopped
• 1 pound ham, diced (about 1½ cups)
• 1 pound frozen meatballs, thawed
• 1 (2.5 ounce) package pepperoni
• 2-3 cups shredded mozzarella
• 1 (16 ounce) tube refrigerated pizza crust
• 3 tablespoons butter, melted
• ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
• Grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown Italian sausage, bacon, and ham together.
• When meat is cooked through (no pink on any of these meats!), drain and return to skillet.
• Stir in 1 jar of spaghetti sauce. Stir to combine.
• Bring spaghetti sauce mixture to a simmer and allow to simmer for about 10 minutes.
• When sauce has simmered, pour into a 9x13 baking dish.
• Add noodles, meatballs, pepperoni, and the second jar of spaghetti sauce to the baking dish with the meat mixture. Stir to combine.
• Top pasta with shredded mozzarella.
• Unroll refrigerated pizza crust and drape over the top of the baking dish. Fold up any hanging edges so that it looks like a crust on a pizza.
• In a small bowl, mix together melted butter and garlic powder. Brush over pizza crust using a pastry brush.
• Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top.
• Bake at 375° for about 15-20 minutes, until crust is golden and pasta is cooked through.
