Pepperoni Pasta Bake


Ingredients:
*12 oz. rotini pasta
*2 egg, lightly beaten
*1 cup cheese (cheddar or Mozzarella), shredded
*1 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded
*2 cups cottage cheese (Homemade cottage cheese is AWESOME in this recipe.)
*1/2 tsp. salt
*1/4 tsp. pepper
*4 oz. pepperoni, sliced and slivered (I use turkey pepperoni.)
*1 cup frozen peas

Directions:
1.  Cook pasta, but slightly undercook.

2. In large bowl, combine beaten eggs, cheeses, salt, pepper, and pepperoni.

3.  Stir in pasta.

4.  Pour into greased 9x13 pan.

5.  Bake covered 20-25 minutes at 400-degrees, or until edges begin to brown.

Notes: 
*If mixture seems too dry, add up to 1 cup of milk.  Be careful not to add too much liquid, the pasta will absorb it while cooking and you'll end up with mush.

*I only use about a half cup of the shredded cheeses and it's still really good.
