Healthy Pizza Casserole

In a quest to find things that are easy, quick and taste great that the whole family will love, we have taken the VERY popular Pizza Casserole recipe, and made it a meal that our family of 6 devoured, and it was even healthy!  Here are the nutrition stats per serving. (10 servings per recipe) Just as a gauge, there is more fat in one serving of regular peperoni than in an entire serving of this awesome casserole!! Oh, yeah, added it all up, and it comes out to be $1.33 per serving!  Take that to the dollar menu!
