Ingredients
Cook the Pasta
- 2½ Cups pasta ~½ pack
- water
- salt
Cook the Ground Meat
- 2 Tablespoon olive oil or normal cooking oil
- 1 Medium onion
- 3 Pieces garlic cloves
- 2½ Cup mushrooms sliced
- 1 Pound ground beef
- 2 Tablespoon Italian seasoning ore oregano
- ½ Teaspoon salt
- ¼ Teaspoon Black Pepper Ground
Assembling in the baking dish
- 1 Can whole peeled tomatoes
- 1 Cup tomato sauce
- ½ Teaspoon salt
- 1½ Tablespoon basil dried or fresh
- 1 Cup cheese I used cheddar and parmesan
Instructions
Cook the Pasta
- Bring water to boil with salt and cook pasta according to package instructions. Strain and keep aside.
Cook the Ground Meat
- Prepare the fresh ingredients. Slice the onion, chop the garlic and slice the mushrooms.
- Heat up a skillet with olive oil and saute onions soft over a medium heat setting.
- Stir in chopped garlic and saute for a minute or two over the same heat setting.
- Add in the sliced mushrooms. Keep over a medium to high heat setting and try to stir and mix when they start to reduce in size.
- Turn the heat down to medium and continue to saute mushrooms until they have reduced considerably.
- Make some space in the center and stir in ground beef. Keep over the same medium heat setting and stir cook for a minute so that it all gets mixed up.
- Season with salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Use oregano if you can't get Italian seasoning.
- Mit it all up and cook over a medium flame for a few more minutes until beef isn't red anymore.
- Take the pan from the heat.
Assembling in the baking dish
- Preheat your oven to 320 Fahrenheit/160 Celsius.
- Spread whole peeled canned tomatoes in your rectangular baking dish. I like to just smash and break the tomato pieces with my spatula.
- Pour in tomato sauce and season with salt and basil. Mix it up.
- Place cooked pasta into the casserole dish to the tomato. Also, add the ground-cooked beef mixture to the baking dish.
- Stir and mix the contents of the johnny marzetti, so that the pasta is evenly coated with tomato and beef sauce.
- Top evenly with cheese.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake covered first for 20 mins at 320 Fahrenheit/160 Celsius.
- Take out and uncover the dish, take it back to the oven and finish baking uncovered at 320 Fahrenheit/160 Celsius for another 10 minutes. I like to use the broiler function so that cheese gets crunchy and the dish gets some color on top.
- Serve up hot and enjoy.
