How to Make Baked Rotini
- Brown 1 lb ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon, until no longer pink. Drain off any excess grease.
- Add 1 medium onion (chopped) and 2 cloves garlic (minced) to the skillet. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley.
- Bring the sauce to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in 1 pound rotini pasta (or your favorite pasta shape) and 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Pour the pasta mixture into a lightly greased 13x9 inch baking dish.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 35 minutes, or until bubbly and heated through.
- Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra parsley, if desired.
