Rotini Bake, Spaghetti Bake, Casseroles

This is a recipe for Rotini Bake. It is adapted from a traditional Spaghetti Bake recipe. This is the quick version as it calls for the jar of spaghetti sauce. It tastes even better and more personalized with homemade sauce. This is one of my favorite recipes.

2 lb ground beef

Meat Casseroles

2 26 oz jar of spaghetti sauce

1 8 oz package mozzarella cheese

1 8 oz package cheddar cheese

1 16 oz box of rotini noodles

1 medium onion chopped or 1 tablespoon onion powder

1 Tablespoon garlic powder

Non Stick Spray

Preheat oven to 350 Degrees

Technique

Step 1: Put a generous amount of water into a pan. Bring to a rolling boil. Boil noodles for 5 minutes. (Noodles will not be cooked all of the way). Drain noodles, set aside.

Step 2: Brown ground beef with chopped onion (or onion powder) and garlic powder. Drain well. Mix with rotini noodles. Add 2 jars of spaghetti sauce. Mix well.

Step 3: Spray a baking pan with non-stick spray. Add half of the spaghetti sauce, ground beef and noodle mixture to the bottom of a baking pan. Sprinkle half of the mozzarella cheese and cheddar cheese over the mixture. Add the other half of the spaghetti sauce, ground beef and noodle mixture. Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top.

Step 4: Cover pan with Foil. Place in oven and bake for 30-45 minutes or until cheese is bubbly. Remove foil and bake another 15-20 minutes (or until golden brown)

You can also substitute the ground beef with ground turkey to make this a healthier option. This dish is best served with garlic bread and a side salad.
