Meaty Ziti Casserole With Ground Beef and Italian Sausage Recipe image

Provided by á-49759

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 pound lean ground beef, at least 85%
1/2 pound bulk sweet Italian sausage
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 can (28 ounces) crushed tomatoes
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 teaspoon dried leaf basil
1/2 teaspoon dried leaf oregano
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
salt and pepper, to taste
8 ounces ziti pasta
1 cup ricotta cheese, whole milk
3/4 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese, divided
1 large egg
3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
1 to 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350° F (180° C/Gas 4). Lightly grease or spray a 2 1/2 to 3-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef, sausage, and onion. Cook, stirring, until the meat is no longer pink and the onion is translucent. Add the garlic to the meat mixture and cook, stirring, for 1 minute longer. Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, basil, oregano, and crushed red pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 to 12 minutes. Taste and add salt and pepper, as needed. In a large bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese, the egg, and 1 cup of Mozzarella cheese. Stir until well blended. While the sauce is simmering, cook the ziti in boiling salted water following directions on the package. Drain well. Add the hot drained pasta to the bowl with the ricotta cheese mixture. Toss lightly to blend. Add 2 cups of the meat sauce to the ziti mixture. Transfer half of the pasta mixture to the prepared baking dish. Spread about half of the meat sauce over the pasta, then top with the remaining Parmesan cheese and half of the remaining Mozzarella. Top with the remaining pasta mixture, then finish with the remaining meat sauce and remaining Mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle with the chopped parsley. Bake for 25 minutes, or until hot and bubbly around the edges.

Tips:

  • Brown the meat first: This will help to seal in the juices and give the casserole a richer flavor.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add color, flavor, and nutrients to the casserole.
  • Don't overcook the pasta: It should be al dente, or slightly firm to the bite.
  • Season the casserole to taste: Use salt, pepper, garlic powder, and other spices to your liking.
  • Let the casserole rest for a few minutes before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld together.
