Pizza Pasta Cupcakes

Wow, it's been over a year that we have been living on our own and it has been quite the roller coaster of life. Let's see if we can share more recipes and crafts this year. :) As the first post in a long time, how about some Pizza Pasta Cupcakes? I was talking to my mom on the phone yesterday trying to come up with ways that she could jazz up leftover spaghetti she has in her fridge, and thought of an idea I had saw on pinterest  of spaghetti cupcakes which got me thinking. I was already planning on making a pizza pasta casserole for supper last night. Then it hit me: why not bake the pizza casserole in a cupcake tin instead of in a casserole dish? Genius right?Well this is how it worked out:


Ingredients:
1/2 bag egg noodles
1/2 can spaghetti sauce
1 roll of sausage
1 cup shredded pizza blend cheese
1/2 bag pepperoni slices

Directions:
1. cook egg noodles according to package directions
2. pour noodles in a colander to drain.
3. Leave noodles in colander while you prepare sauce. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
4. brown sausage in pan.
5. add sauce let simmer to marry flavors together.
6. add noodles to pot and stir together
7. stir in about half the pepperonis
8. scoop mixture into muffin tins
9. top with cheese and a pepperoni
10. bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden on top.


I also froze one pan still in the pan and saved them in ziploc bags for the roommate to take for lunch.
