Directions
- The Cook & Kitchen staff have a little pasta in mind for dinner tonight, and it's coming your way as a one-dish meal from our "Creative Casserole"
- Oops, did we say a little pasta This one-dish meal could nearly serve a soccer team. The recipe states which it serves eight, but we've had leftovers in the fridge from a group of ten... And they were hungry.
- Perhaps they were just saving room for the cannoli and coffee, but we thought which was an idle, post-dinner rumor. Prepare and enjoy!
- Brown grnd beef, minced onion, and chopped garlic in a large skillet over medium heat. Drain excess fat, if necessary, and reserve.
- Cook minced spinach as directed on the package; drain, and reserve the liquid. Add in sufficient water to the reserved spinach water to make 1 c..
- Combine spinach liquid with the spaghetti sauce, tomato sauce, tomato paste, and salt and pepper, and add in to the browned meat and vegetables.
- Simmer for about 10 min to thoroughly combine meat with the sauces.
- Meanwhile, cook the elbow or possibly shell macaroni as directed on the package, drain, and reserve. Combine the cooked spinach with the macaroni in a large mixing bowl. Add in cheese, bread crumbs, Large eggs, and oil to the spinach and macaroni, stirring from the bottom to combine all ingredients.
- Spread the macaroni mix into a 9-inch by 13-inch oven-proof baking dish. Cover with the meat sauce, and bake in a pre-heated 350-F degree oven for about a half an hour.
- This hearty one-dish meal goes perfectly with a leafy green salad and garlic toast.
