  1. Bring water to a boil in a pot. Boil pasta until al dente. Drain and set aside (or you can add the pasta later, bring the sauce to a boil, and boil until cooked. You will need to add an additional one can of water if you do this.)
  2. In an oven safe pot, cook and crumble sausage. Drain excess grease and return to pot.
  3. Add tomato sauce, about 1/2 the pepperonis, the water, tomato paste, garlic, oregano, and red pepper flakes to the sausage. Cook until everything is combined and warm.
  4. Mix in the parmesan cheese and cooked pasta.
  5. Cover with mozzarella cheese. Place pepperonis on top of that.
  6. Place in oven at 400 degrees for about 10 minutes, or until cheese is warm and bubbly.
