Feel free to get creative with your toppings! Add mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, or cooked sausage for extra flavor and texture. For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce or use a spicy pepperoni. If you don't have pepperoni on hand, you can substitute with cooked ground beef or Italian sausage. To prevent the pasta from drying out, you can add a splash of milk or cream to the sauce mixture before baking. This casserole can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking. Add an extra 10-15 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold.
