Easy Pasta Bake Recipe

  • 1 pound pasta
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 (32 ounce) jar Classico® Tomato and Basil Sauce
  • 8 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 1/4 cups Italian-style stewed tomatoes

  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  4. In a 9×13 inch baking dish, pour in beef and tomato mixture and add pasta; mix well. Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top.
  5. Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the cheese starts to bubble; serve immediately.
