Baked Penne | Penne Al horno

     One thing that we love to eat is Pasta! We try not to have it so regularly because they do carry a lot of carbs, but its so tasty. I was looking through Pinterest one day, and came across a really tasty easy recipe. It looked so delicious and simple to make that I wanted to try it out for myself. This recipe comes from The Country Cook website and I added some other ingredients and changed it up a bit to my preference. The things you will need are...

• 1 pound of ground beef
• 1 jar of Spaghetti sauce (your choice)
• 1 jar of Alfredo sauce
• A box of Penne
• A bag of mozzarella cheese shredded
• Butter
• Pre Heat your oven to 350 degrees

1. In a pot, add the Penne and some water. 

2. Place pot on the stove and let come to a boil on medium heat.

3. While the pasta is cooking, heat up a pan and cook the ground beef.

4. Add some seasoning to your liking.

5. When the meat is cooked, add the spaghetti sauce.

6. Let the sauce simmer on low heat.

7. Once the pasta is ready, drain the water and rinse with cold water.

8. Place the pasta back in the pot and pour the Alfredo sauce and let simmer.

9. Mix the mixture together.

10. In a baking dish, spread butter around the dish.

11. Pour the Alfredo mixture in the baking dish and spread it around to cover the bottom.

12. Pour and spread the meat sauce over the Alfredo penne sauce.

13. Add the bag of mozzarella evenly across the baking dish.

14. I decided to add some dried oregano to the recipe. This is optional, but it gave it a great taste. 

15. Cover the baking dish with foil and place in oven for fifteen minutes.

16. Remove after fifteen minutes and let cool before serving.

17. Once cooled down, you may serve.

ENJOY!
