Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

- Spread spaghetti sauce over noodle mixture. Sprinkle with oregano and basil, then top with remaining 1 1/2 cups mozzarella. Arrange pepperoni over cheese.
- Return to the oven and bake until cheese is bubbly and beginning to brown, about 30 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before cutting.
