Create a cheesy meatball pizza casserole using frozen meatballs, mozzarella, and pizza sauce for a delicious Italian twist!
Ingredients:
  • 1 package (3 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 2 cans (15 oz each) pizza sauce
  • 1 French baguette loaf (1 lb), cut into 1-inch-thick slices
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (6 oz)
  • 1 bag (16 oz) frozen cooked Italian meatballs (about 32 meatballs), thawed
  • 1/2 cup chopped pepperoni (2 oz)
  • 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper (1/2 medium)
  • 1/4 cup shredded fresh basil leaves
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix cream cheese and pizza sauce in a large bowl until smooth.
  • Prepare a 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish without greasing. Spread 1 cup of sauce mixture in the dish, then layer baguette slices on top. Cover the baguette slices with another 1 cup of sauce mixture, and sprinkle evenly with 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese.
  • Mix the meatballs and pepperoni into the sauce; pour over the cheese. Top with bell peppers and the remaining cup of mozzarella cheese.
  • Bake until hot and bubbly, with melty cheese, about 30-40 minutes. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh basil before serving.
