Pepperoni and Mushroom Pasta Bake - Batch Cook Freezer Recipe


In an effort to get my Little Miss to eat more vegetables I've been adapting some of her favourite junk food recipes into healthier versions.  My Hamburger Pasta Sauce Recipe went down a treat and it inspired me to make a pepperoni pizza version which was an even bigger success!!  #momwin!!

1kg Pepperoni £6.80
1kg Onions 69p
750g Mushrooms £1.40
3 Tins Chopped Tomatoes 84p
1 Bulb Garlic 16p
1 Tube Tomato Puree 31p

Total = £10.20
Makes 18 portions = 57p per portion

Start by mincing the garlic.


And dicing the onions.

Pop them in the pan to fry until soft.


Chop the mushrooms.


Once the onions and garlic are soft add the mushrooms to the pan and fry them too.


Next add the chopped tomatoes.


And the tomato puree.


Chop up the pepperoni and throw that in the pan too.

Bring the mixture to the boil and little it simmer for about half an hour stirring occasionally.


Pop the sauce into an over proof dish.


Add dried pasta.


Then add about as much water as you added sauce.


Give it a good stir and pop it in the oven at about gas mark 5 200 degrees for about an hour.


Once the pasta is pretty much cooked top with a generous payer of cheese and cook for another 10 - 15 minutes to melt the cheese.
