Ingredients
– 340 grams (12 ounces) bowtie pasta
– 450 grams (1 pound) ground beef
– 450 grams (1 pound) ground Italian sausage
– 1 small onion, chopped
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 400 grams (14 ounces) pizza sauce
– 100 grams (3.5 ounces) pepperoni
– 300 grams (10.5 ounces) condensed cheddar cheese soup

Instructions
1- Getting started with this cheesy pizza casserole is as easy as boiling water, and you’ll be amazed at how quickly it comes together. Begin by preheating your oven to 175Β°C (350Β°F) and spraying a 9Γ13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. This sets the stage for a dish that’s ready in no time.
2- First, cook the 340 grams of bowtie pasta in salted water as per the package directions, then drain and return it to the pot. In a large skillet, brown the 450 grams of ground beef, 450 grams of ground Italian sausage, and the chopped small onion until they’re no longer pink. Add the 3 minced garlic cloves and cook for another minute to build that flavorful base.
3- Once that’s done, drain any excess fat and stir in the 400 grams of pizza sauce, 100 grams of pepperoni, 300 grams of condensed cheddar cheese soup, and 225 grams of shredded Italian cheese blend. Combine this meaty mixture with the cooked pasta, add salt to taste, and transfer everything to your prepared baking dish. Top it off with 225 grams of shredded mozzarella cheese and bake uncovered for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
