How to Make Colorful Mushroom Casserole

  1. Cook 1 pound of tri-color spiral pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain well and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1 cup of milk.
  3. Add the cooked pasta to the egg and milk mixture and toss gently to coat.
  4. Spread the pasta mixture evenly in a greased 10x13 inch baking dish.
  5. In a large skillet, brown 1 pound of ground beef over medium-high heat. Add 1 medium onion (chopped), 1 green bell pepper (chopped), and 2 cloves garlic (minced). Cook until beef is no longer pink and vegetables are tender. Drain off any excess grease.
  6. Stir in 1 (24 ounce) jar of your favorite tomato sauce and simmer for 5 minutes.
  7. Evenly spread the meat sauce over the pasta in the baking dish. Top with 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms and 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese.
  8. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 20 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
  9. Let the casserole stand for 5 minutes before cutting and serving hot.
