Special Touch
Just for fun, make six smiley faces on the top with sliced pimiento-stuffed olives for the eyes and thin strips of green bell pepper for the smiles.
Variation
Dress up this casserole when you replace the wagon wheels with an equal amount of rotini, rotelle, penne or farfalle pasta.
Substitution
Hamburger pizza more your style? Use lean ground beef instead of Italian sausage.
