Life After Marriage

This weekend for fight night I made Pizza Pasta!  I'd seen it a few different places & finally decided to make it.

I browned some ground turkey, onions, italian seasoning, garlic, and red pepper flakes..

then mixed that with mozzerella cheese, pasta sauce, and cooked pasta..

spread all of that into a casserole pan, covered it with more cheese, then pepperoni.  After cooking it we devoured it & I decided i WILL be making that again!
