Pizzagna image

I love pizza, but I can no longer eat yeast bread. I can have wheat though, so pasta is still in. To serve my pizza craving, I devised this dish that delivers all the goodness of a supreme combo pizza without the yeast bread. For a crowd, serve with garlic bread and salad and/or veggies on the side to really stretch this dish.

Time 1h20m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

cooking spray
4 cups prepared marinara sauce
1 pound bulk Italian sausage
1 tablespoon water
1 green bell pepper, chopped
½ red onion, chopped
3 cups cottage cheese
4 eggs, beaten
⅓ cup Parmesan cheese
2 teaspoons dried parsley
1 (8 ounce) package no-boil lasagna noodles, or more if needed
½ cup mini pepperoni pieces, or more to taste
½ cup sliced mushrooms, or to taste
¼ cup sliced black olives, or to taste
3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Heat spaghetti sauce in a saucepan over medium heat.
  • Cook and stir sausage and water in a large skillet over medium heat, using a potato masher to break sausage into small pieces, until sausage is crumbly and almost cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add pepper and onion; cook and stir until onion is tender, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Stir cottage cheese, eggs, Parmesan cheese, and parsley together in a bowl.
  • Spread about 1 cup warmed spaghetti sauce into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Arrange 3 lasagna noodles over the sauce. Spread 1/2 of the cottage cheese mixture over the noodles, another 1 cup spaghetti sauce over the cheese, and 2/3 cup sausage mixture over the top. Sprinkle 1/2 of the pepperoni pieces, 1/2 of the sliced mushrooms, and 1/2 of the olives over the sausage mixture. Scatter 1/3 the mozzarella cheese over the top and arrange 3 lasagna noodles atop the cheese. Repeat layering again.
  • Pour remaining spaghetti sauce over the lasagna and sprinkle remaining mozzarella cheese over the top. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until sauce is bubbling around the edges, about 25 minutes. Remove aluminum foil and continue baking until cheese is melted and golden, about 5 minutes more. Cool for 15 minutes before slicing.

I'm not sure about this recipe. It seems like it would be a lot of work.

I tried this recipe and it was a disaster. The crust was burnt and the toppings were all over the place.

This was not my favorite recipe. The crust was too thick and the toppings were bland.

This was the best pizzagna I have had. The crust was crispy and the toppings were flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.
