Pizza casserole is a hearty and comforting dish inspired by Italian-American cuisine. Combining flavors reminiscent of a classic pizza, this baked creation typically includes layers of pasta or noodles, marinara or pizza sauce, melted mozzarella cheese, and toppings like pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, olives, or bell peppers. Packed with bold flavors, it offers a crowd-pleasing twist on traditional pizza by substituting the crust with pasta. While pizza casserole is rich in protein from its cheese and meat components, as well as fiber from added vegetables, it can also be high in sodium, saturated fats, and calories, depending on the ingredients used. Healthier versions can incorporate whole-grain pasta, reduced-fat cheese, lean proteins, and generous servings of vegetables to increase its nutritional value. Ideal for potlucks, family dinners, or meal-prepping, pizza casserole offers indulgent comfort with the potential for healthier customization.
