Crockpot Pizza

shared by Patty H. (a favorite of the Hallam clan)

 Ingredients:

1 ½ lb. hamburger, browned and drained

1 onion, chopped

2 cups shredded Mozzarella cheese

½ pkg. sliced pepperoni (I used turkey pepperoni for a little healthier version.)

2/3  box rigatoni noodles, cooked (I use the smaller mini penne noodles, Barilla brand)

1 can cream of mushroom soup

1 can mushrooms, drained, optional  (I don’t use this)

2 cans pizza sauce (I use the 24 oz. Bertolli Tomato & Basil Sauce, very yummy!)
(can also use 1-15 oz. can tomato sauce + 3-4 tsp. Italian Seasoning + ½ - 1 tsp.  garlic powder)

 Directions:

1.      Alternate layers in crock pot as follows:  hamburger, noodles, cheese, soup, mushrooms, onions, sauce and pepperoni. 

2.      Heat 4 hours on low in crock pot.
