Don't feel like spending all afternoon in the kitchen? Are you looking for quick and tasty recipes? Then this pizza-style pasta casserole should be on your list to try.

You'll make it once and want to repeat it regularly because it’s simply finger-licking good! Plus, it comfortably feeds a family of three. Conclusion: Quick, plentiful, and tasty.

What ingredients do you need?

To prepare it, you'll need a package of larger pasta, a block of yellow cheese, and pizza toppings – ham, salami, sausage, mushrooms, bell peppers, and optionally onions. The casserole needs to "stick together," so choose either tomato sauce or a mix of mayonnaise and 18% sour cream. The finishing touch will be the spices typically sprinkled on pizza, such as oregano.

Preparation method

How to prepare a pizza-style pasta casserole? Cook the pasta and let it cool. Then, transfer it to a heat-resistant dish. Add the chopped ham. Cut the vegetables and lightly sauté them in a pan, then add them to the remaining ingredients.

Mix everything with the sauce and spices. Finally, grate the cheese and generously sprinkle it on top. Put the casserole in an oven preheated to 350°F for about 20 minutes. And it’s ready.
