Pizza in any form (even these pizza egg rolls!) is like music to my tastebuds.
And this recipe brings pizza and spaghetti together in one dish.
It’s pretty magical really.

Ingredients for Pizza Casserole
- 8 oz spaghetti noodles
- 3 eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, (grated)
- 1/2 tsp oregano
- 1/2 tsp garlic, (crushed)
- 2 1/2 cup spaghetti sauce, (jarred, or using our super easy recipe below)
- 3 cup mozzarella cheese, (shredded)
- 3.5 oz pepperoni, (sliced, packaged)
- tomato paste
- 1 cube chicken bouillon
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch sugar
- water, (for desired thickness)
How to Make Pizza CASSEROLE
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Cook the spaghetti noodles in salted water according to the package directions.
Once cooked, drain well.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk eggs and milk.
Add the Parmesan cheese, oregano and garlic to the egg mixture.
Stir in spaghetti noodles and quickly toss until all ingredients are combined.
Pour noodle mixture into a greased 9×13 pan.
Pour the spaghetti sauce on top of noodles.
Top with half of the pepperoni.
Sprinkle the shredded cheese on top of the pepperoni and top with remaining pepperoni.
Bake for about 25 minutes or until golden brown.
Let the pizza spaghetti cool for five minutes before serving so all the yummy cheesiness doesn’t fall apart.
How to Make Sauce for Pizza Spaghetti Bake
For the spaghetti sauce, add tomato paste, chicken bouillon, salt and sugar to a medium saucepan.
Whisk the mixture over medium-high heat, adding water to desired consistency.
Stir over heat until chicken bouillon is melted, or about 5 minutes.
Can You Freeze Pizza Spaghetti Bake?
Absolutely!
This recipe is a favorite for our family’s freezer meal plan.
To freeze, layer according to directions in an aluminum pan (like this one).
Once all layers have been added, cover the pizza spaghetti bake with two layers of aluminum foil and flash freeze for one hour.
Once pizza spaghetti bake is frozen, label the pan and place in deep freezer for up to two months.
When ready to eat, thaw for 30 minutes and then bake according to recipe directions.
A really smart tip is to make TWO batches of this pizza spaghetti at once. one to enjoy NOW, and the other one to freeze for later.
One Dish, Spaghetti CASSEROLE is An Easy Meal!
Sure, it’s nice to go to a restaurant sometimes, but eating at home is so much more comfortable, less stressful and much cheaper!
Spaghetti Pizza Bake Time-saving Tip!
I typically make a home-made, super simple spaghetti sauce. (Only because it’s cheaper and I prefer home sauces.)
But, if you can snag a jar of spaghetti sauce for a reasonable price to use in this recipe — do it!
It will save you a few, precious minutes!
Spaghetti sauce is pretty pricey in my neck of the world, so I just whip up a super, simple recipe.
Or, if you’re a spaghetti sauce snob, you’ll probably love this Italian bolognese recipe!
It’s so good!
I’ll leave a picture of it below.
My family enjoys it, so it works for me.
While this cheesy pizza spaghetti bake is getting all bubbly in the oven, I can set the table, wipe, down kitchen counters and wash any dishes that I dirtied while preparing the meal.
Simple, one-dish meals like this one really save me energy and time while providing a hearty, hot meal for my family to enjoy.
Enjoy this super-easy meal that will save you time and energy during your busy back-to-school days.
