Italian Meat Manicotti Casserole
Ingredients
  • 1 pound rigatoni pasta
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 pound Italian sausage
  • 1 (8 ounce) can mushrooms, drained
  • 2 (32 ounce) jars spaghetti sauce
  • 1 1/2 pounds shredded mozzarella cheese
  • thinly sliced pepperoni
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a high temperature of three hundred fifty degrees Fahrenheit, or one seventy-five degrees Celsius.
2
Fill a large container with water and add a small amount of salt. Bring the water to a rolling boil, then carefully pour in your rigatoni pasta.
3
Allow the pasta to cook for approximately eight to ten minutes, or until it reaches the desired level of doneness. Remove the pasta from the water with a strainer and set it aside for now.
4
In a separate cooking vessel, heat some oil over medium heat. Add ground beef and Italian sausage to the pan and cook until they are nicely browned.
5
Using a spoon, transfer the cooked beef and sausage to a baking dish. Add some sliced mushrooms, spaghetti sauce, and the previously cooked pasta to the baking dish.
6
Sprinkle shredded cheese and pepperoni slices over the top of the pasta mixture. Then, place the baking dish in your preheated oven.
7
Allow the cheese and pasta mixture to bake for around twenty minutes, or until it is golden brown and bubbly.
