Deep Dish Pizza Mac & Cheese Casserole combines creamy four-cheese macaroni, pepperoni, and pizza sauce into an incredible Chicago-inspired comfort food recipe! What's up, everyone! 🍕🧀 We're keeping our Chicago Meets Thanksgiving series rolling, and today we're taking two of the greatest comfort foods ever invented and turning them into ONE absolutely ridiculous casserole! Because apparently regular mac and cheese just wasn't cheesy enough for us anymore! 😂 Now, everybody knows Chicago is famous for deep dish pizza, and everybody loves a good homemade mac and cheese. So I figured, why not bring those two worlds together? We're talking layers of creamy, cheesy goodness, plenty of pepperoni, and all those amazing pizza flavors baked into a big, beautiful casserole. This is the kind of dish where you take one look at that golden, bubbly cheese on top and know you're in trouble! And while we're making this as part of our Thanksgiving series, don't think for a second you have to wait for the holidays to make it. This would be AWESOME for game day, a family dinner, or pretty much any occasion where you want to show up with something a little over the top. So here's my question: Are you grabbing a slice of deep dish pizza or a big bowl of mac and cheese? Because today, you don't have to choose! 📸 When you make it, post your pics on my Facebook page or tag me on Instagram — I wanna see yours! 👇 Full Ingredients List below — and don't forget to grab my free cookbook at the link! #PizzaMacAndCheese #DeepDishPizza #MacAndCheeseCasserole #ThanksgivingSides #AverageGuyGourmet 🍕 Ingredients ✅ 1 lb.
