Children's favorite pizza-pasta casserole image

My grand children love pizza, ( what kid doesn't?,) and they were at my house for dinner 1 night and I didn't know what I was going to make them because all 3 are very picky eaters. I came up with this quick and easy pizza casserole and WOW did it go over great!! Not only that, but it's so easy, the kids love to help make it!
