Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium, diced onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 2 cups uncooked pasta (e.g., elbow macaroni or rotini)
- 1.5 cups frozen mixed vegetables
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon paprika (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, cooking for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up into small pieces with a spoon. Drain any excess grease.
Season the beef mixture with salt and black pepper. Stir well, then remove from heat and set aside.
Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, milk, and 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until well combined.
Add the cooked pasta, ground beef mixture, and frozen mixed vegetables to the bowl. Mix thoroughly until everything is evenly coated.
Pour the mixture into the prepared casserole dish, spreading it out into an even layer.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the casserole is heated through and bubbly.
Optional: Sprinkle paprika over the top for a pop of color before serving.
Remove from the oven, let it cool for 5 minutes, and serve warm. Enjoy your Easy Supper Casserole!
