Philly Cheesesteak Bake
Ingredients
  • 1 (16 ounce) package bow tie pasta
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 onions, chopped
  • 1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
  • 2 (10.75 ounce) cans condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 (10.75 ounce) can milk
  • 1 (4 ounce) can sliced mushrooms
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 3 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup dry bread crumbs
  • 3 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
  • 1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
Instructions
1
Begin by preheating your oven to a high temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit, or 190 degrees Celsius. Next, lightly coat the bottom and sides of a rectangular baking dish measuring 9x13 inches with a thin layer of oil.
2
In a separate pot, bring a substantial amount of salted water to its boiling point. Then, add the pasta and cook until it reaches your desired level of firmness, approximately 8 minutes. Remove from heat, drain the water, and transfer the pasta to a large container.
3
In a pan with a moderate heat setting, heat vegetable oil until it reaches its liquid state. Add sliced onions and cook until they start to soften, gradually becoming translucent.
4
Add ground beef to the pan, stirring constantly until it is evenly browned and cooked through. Remove excess oil from the mixture, then pour it into the container with the pasta.
5
Measure out a specific amount of condensed soup using its can as a guide. Add milk from the same can to create a uniform mixture, then stir in sliced mushrooms and dried thyme until everything is well combined.
6
Mix 3 cups of shredded cheese into the pasta mixture, adding a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Transfer the entire mixture to the prepared baking dish.
7
In a small bowl, combine crushed bread crumbs and melted butter until they form a smooth paste. Add the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheese to this mixture, stirring until it is fully incorporated.
8
Spread the bread crumb and butter mixture evenly over the top of the baking dish, ensuring it is uniformly coated.
9
Place the baking dish in a preheated oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the topping is crispy and golden brown.
