Pizza Casserole for a crowd

* 1 1/2 lb hamburger
* 1/2 cup onion, diced
* 1/4 cup green pepper, diced
* 4 oz. mushrooms (canned or fresh)
* 1 tsp. salt
* 1/4 tsp. black pepper
* 1/8 tsp oregano
* 16 oz wide egg noodles
* 2 (10 oz.) cans pizza sauce
* 1 (8 oz.) can tomato sauce
* 1 cup milk
* 1 cup sliced pepperoni, cut into bite size pieces
* 8 oz. Mozzarella cheese, shredded
In large skillet, brown ground beef until just starting to lose the pink color, than add the onion, green pepper, mushrooms, salt, pepper, and oregano, and continue cooking until ground beef is brown and veggies are tender, but not too soft.
Meanwhile, cook the noodles as directed on the packaging, and drain.
In large bowl, combine the beef mixture and noodles with the pizza sauce, tomato sauce, milk, and pepperoni. Turn into a large casserole dish and top with the mozzarella cheese. Cover and put in 350 degree oven for 35 to 40 minutes. Uncover and cook 10 minutes more or until cheese starts to brown. This is a big dish that will serve about ten people.

Note-Gregg found this on one of the food storage websites. I made it tonight and it was a hit. Next time I make this I think that I am going to add 1/2 lb sausage. And decrease the hamburger to 1 lb.
