Ingredients

  • 4 cups uncooked wagon wheel pasta (8 ounces)
  • 1/2 pound bulk Italian sausage
  • 1 jar (28 ounces) pasta sauce
  • 1 can (4 ounces) mushroom pieces and stems, drained
  • 1/4 cup sliced ripe olives
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (4 ounces)

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F.
  • 2
    Cook and drain pasta as directed on package.
  • 3
    While pasta is cooking; cook sausage in 10-inch skillet over medium-heat, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink; drain. Mix pasta, sausage and remaining ingredients except cheese in ungreased 2 1/2-quart casserole.
  • 4
    Cover and bake about 30 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake uncovered about 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    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.
  • tip 2
    Dress up this casserole when you replace the wagon wheels with an equal amount of rotini, rotelle, penne or farfalle pasta.
  • tip 3
    Hamburger pizza more your style? Use lean ground beef instead of Italian sausage.
