I needed a quick one-skillet dish to put on the table. I thought if I added pizza sauce, pepperoni and mozzarella cheese to pasta, it might appeal to my daughter's "selective palate." I was right! Since it tasted like pizza and was topped with gooey cheese, it was an instant hit. -Lori Daniels, Beverly, West Virginia
