A baked pasta casserole blending ziti-style pasta with a cheesy mozzarella-rich sauce — gooey, hearty, and family-friendly.
Ingredients:
1 pound lean ground beef
1 (28 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
1 (16 ounce) package rotini pasta
2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
Directions:
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a skillet, cook beef until brown over medium heat. Drain excess fat from meat.
Add spaghetti sauce and rotini pasta to browned beef. In a three quart casserole dish layer meat mixture, followed with the mozzarella cheese, repeat.
