This Pepperoni Pizza Casserole only requires 5 ingredients and less than 30 minutes of your time to cook. It is a meal that the adults will like just as much as the children do. It’s not complicated at all, and yet it manages to impress a large number of people.
No matter how hard you try, feeding a child can never be a simple task. Although I consider both of my sons to be healthy eaters, they do have their preferences when it comes to certain foods. When it comes to producing a pizza-inspired meal that the kids would eat, this casserole was my best effort.
In preparation for this dish, I chopped some of my pepperonis into smaller pieces and left others whole. Because we find it better to consume when the pepperoni that is combined into the casserole dish is bite-size, we chop the pepperoni into smaller pieces before adding it.
