Easy Loaded Cheeseburger Casserole

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Add water to a medium pot and season it with salt. Bring the water to a boil. Stir in the pasta and boil for about 8 minutes, until just tender.

Drain and return to the pot.

In a large skillet, over medium heat, cook the ground beef, stirring with a wooden spoon to break up the lumps, until no longer pink. Drain off the fat.

Add the onion, garlic, and the bell pepper, cook until the vegetables are tender about 5 minutes.

Add the tomato paste, diced tomatoes with juice, and the Worcestershire sauce, parsley, oregano, dried mustard, salt, and pepper.

Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to low. Simmer the mixture for about 15 minutes.

Pour the tomato mixture over the noodles and stir until combined.

Spray a baking dish with cooking spray.

Transfer the mixture to the baking dish. Top with cheese.

Bake for about 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is melted.

Top with chopped pickles, tomatoes, and iceberg lettuce before serving.
