Ingredients
  

For the Casserole
  • 8 ounces Pasta Shells Substitute with elbow macaroni or penne
  • 1 pound Ground Beef Can be substituted with turkey or veggie crumbles
  • 1 can Tomato Soup Adjust seasoning if using fresh tomatoes
  • 1 cup Cheddar and Mozzarella Cheese Any melting cheese blend can be used

Equipment

  • Large pot
  • Colander
  • large skillet
  • Mixing Bowl
  • 9x13-inch baking dish
  • Oven

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Start by bringing a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the pasta shells and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the ground beef and cook for 5-7 minutes until browned, breaking it apart. Drain excess grease.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta, browned beef, and tomato soup. Fold in half of the cheddar cheese until well-coated.
  4. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Pour the pasta mixture into the dish and spread evenly. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese and all the mozzarella cheese on top.
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Optionally broil for 2-3 minutes for a crispier top.
  6. Let it cool for about 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your homemade casserole warm.
