Drescription
A baked pasta dish with layers of rigatoni, meats, vegetables, and cheese. The “surprise” is whatever leftovers or ingredients you have on hand!
Ingredients
- 1 (16 ounce) package rigatoni pasta
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 yellow onion, chopped
- 1/2 green bell pepper, chopped 2 (14 ounce) cans tomato sauce 2/3 cup chunky salsa
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 1 cup shredded mild cheddar cheese
- 1/3 cup heavy cream 1/3 cup sour cream
Directions
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil; stir in the rigatoni and cook at a boil uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 13 minutes. Drain.
- Meanwhile, cook the ground beef, garlic, onion, and bell pepper in a large pot over medium-high heat until the ground beef has browned and the vegetables are tender, about 7 minutes. Pour in the tomato sauce and salsa; season to taste with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue cooking 15 minutes.
- Stir in the Cheddar cheese and cream; cook and stir 3 minutes, then stir in the sour cream until evenly blended. Add the drained pasta and stir until heated through.
