EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

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.

Dress up this casserole when you replace the wagon wheels with an equal amount of rotini, rotelle, penne or farfalle pasta.

Hamburger pizza more your style? Use lean ground beef instead of Italian sausage.

Overall, not bad but not knocking my socks off, either. It was ho-hum and lacked the pizza taste I expected. On the upside, it is quite easy to make and like most pasta dishes, very filling. I'm sure this could be jazzed up with other ingredients or spices. I probably will not make this again.
