Pepperoni Pasta Bake is a comforting Italian-American dish that combines tender pasta, zesty marinara sauce, melted cheese, and spicy slices of pepperoni, baked to perfection. Typically made with penne or rigatoni, this hearty casserole is layered with mozzarella and parmesan cheeses for a rich and creamy texture. While the dish is packed with bold flavors and appeals to fans of savory comfort food, it is moderately high in calories, sodium, and saturated fat due to the cheese and cured meat content. On the positive side, it provides a good source of carbohydrates for energy and essential nutrients from the tomato-based sauce, including vitamin C and lycopene. For a healthier twist, it can be customized with whole-grain pasta, reduced-fat cheese, and added vegetables like spinach or bell peppers for extra fiber and vitamins. Perfect for sharing, this dish is a satisfying crowd-pleaser ideal for family dinner nights.
