Ingredients

• 1 lb Ground beef
• 1 Yellow onion, diced
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 15 oz Crushed tomatoes
• 8 oz Tomato sauce
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• 1 tsp Sugar
• 8 oz Rotini pasta
• 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 tbsp Olive oil
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for another 30 seconds, until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook and crumble the beef until it is browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.

Step 5

Stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, Italian seasoning, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 10 minutes.

Step 6

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the rotini pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta and set it aside.

Step 7

Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the beef and tomato mixture. Stir until the pasta is evenly coated.

Step 8

Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with a light coat of olive oil or non-stick spray. Pour the pasta and beef mixture into the dish and spread it out evenly.

Step 9

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top, followed by the mozzarella cheese.

Step 10

Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 11

Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with the chopped parsley before serving.

Step 12

Serve warm and enjoy your Yummy Hamburger Casserole!
