Sausage & pepperoni added in gives this pasta dish a scrumptious change of pace. Fantastic for pot luck. Throw some shredded mozzarella cheese in, give it a stir and viĆ²la! (Even better if you make it a day before you want to serve it, then just reheat in the oven.)

Categories     Manicotti

Time 35m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 -16 ounces ziti pasta or 12 -16 ounces rotelle pasta, cooked
1 (32 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce (any flavor)
1 cooked sausage (can also use links)
2 packages shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1/3 cup parmesan cheese (from can is fine)
1/4 lb chopped pepperoni (or about 1-2 cups depending on your taste)
sauteed mushroom (optional)
black beans or chickpeas (optional)

Steps:

  • Cook pasta in a large pot until"al-dente" (still slightly firm) and drain water. (Don't rinse).
  • At the same time pasta is cooking, cook sausage until no longer pink.
  • DO NOT DRAIN SAUSAGE.
  • In the pot which pasta was cooked, pour spaghetti sauce, sausage with drippings, pepperoni, garlic powder, mushrooms & parmesan cheese. Then add still hot pasta & cheese.
  • Stir until all pasta is coated w/sauce. Cheese will melt from the heat of the pasta. Serve...... OR:
  • Pour this into casserole dish & cover with more mozzerella cheese.
  • Bake at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
  • Serve with a fresh loaf of bread & salad!
  • ** I also like to throw in either some canned black beans, peas, or chickpeas every now and then just to give it a kick.
