Meat Lover’S Pizza Hot Dish

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 pound bulk Italian sausage
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
• 4 cans (8 ounces each) no-salt-added tomato sauce
• 2 cans (15 ounces each) pizza sauce
• 1 package (16 ounces) penne pasta
• 1 cup water
• 1 can (6 ounces) tomato paste
• 1 package (3-1/2 ounces) sliced pepperoni
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided

1. In a large skillet, cook beef, sausage, onion and mushrooms over medium heat until meat is no longer pink and vegetables are tender, breaking up meat into crumbles, 10-12 minutes; drain.
2. Transfer meat mixture to a greased 6-qt. slow cooker. Stir in tomato sauce, pizza sauce, pasta, water, tomato paste, pepperoni and Italian seasoning. Cook, covered, on low until pasta is tender, 3-4 hours.
3. Stir thoroughly; mix in 1 cup mozzarella cheese and 1 cup cheddar cheese. Sprinkle remaining cheese over top. Cook, covered, until cheese is melted, 15-20 minutes longer.
