Cook the pasta
- In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the pasta slightly less than the package directions.
Assemble
- Spray a 9x13 baking dish with a little cooking spray, then pour a little of the sauce in the bottom.
- Add half the pasta, half the remaining sauce, sprinkle half the mozzarella over the sauce, and layer half the pepperoni slices on top.

Notes
- Be sure to not overcook the pasta, it will cook more when you bake, and you don’t want it to be mushy.
- If using sausage links, remove from the casings and crumble as you cook.
- Using turkey sausage and/or turkey pepperoni will reduce the fat in this recipe.
- Any kind of short pasta can be used.
- Add your favorite pasta toppings like olives, green bell peppers, mushrooms, onions or meatballs.
