the Casserole [Recipe]

Today’s quick & easy recipe is a family staple. We call it THE Casserole. As in the staple, best, and most wonderful casserole:)

Ingredients:
1 package penne noodles (cooked)
1/2 jar spaghetti sauce
about 1/2 lb of ground beef, cooked (optional)
1 C Sour Cream
1 package cream cheese

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350*. Cook noodles and set aside. Cook ground beef and set aside. In a small bowl, combine cream cheese and sour cream.

Assembly:
Layer 1: noodles
Layer 2: cream cheese/sour cream mixture
Layer 3: ground beef
Layer 4: spaghetti sauce
Layer 5: Cheese

Cook for 30 minutes. Sometimes I turn the broiler on for the last 5 minutes to get the cheese nice and crispy.

Have a lovely little day,
