Ingredients:

1 pound ground beef

1 can diced tomatoes

tomato sauce, about 1 cup

3 cups uncooked pasta

mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, about 1 cup each

seasonings...I used parsley, basil and garlic

Begin by browning your ground beef and drain the fat.

Then add the can of diced tomatoes and the tomato sauce.

I only used ½ of this amount in the casserole.

I froze the other ½ for a future casserole...

Cook the pasta according to the package directions.

Drain and add to the meat mixture, along with your seasonings.

I used fresh parsley, basil (from my garden) and garlic...

Now add the cheeses...

Add the entire mixture to a baking dish and bake at 350

until bubbly and hot...

Add a side salad and DINNER IS READY...

Enjoy your day!

Lois, this recipe is a Keeper, I love hamburger helper, but quit buying the boxed kind, because it contained MSG. I am thrilled to find this and will try real soon. Isn't it wonderful to go outside and cut your own herbs and veggies. I have been wondering how your garden was doing.
Enjoy the shopping with your daughter. Susan will be home in August, and we will make up for lost time. ~smile~
Thanks for taking the time to share such wonderful recipes.
Hugs,
Sue
