Preparation

Step 1

Melt margarine over medium high heat in a skillet. Add onions, peppers, and garlic powder. Sauté for about 4 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook pasta according to box directions. Heat sauce and combine with cooked hamburger and cooked sausage.

Lightly grease a 13 x 11-inch casserole dish or your individual pasta dishes. Place 1/2 of the cooked pasta in the dishes, followed by 1/2 the vegetables, 1/2 of the pepperoni and 1/2 sauce. Repeat another layer. Spread mozzarella cheese over top.

Bake at 350°F for about 45 minutes or until cheese is melted.
