Cheesy noodles and ground beef wrapped in a creamy sauce and topped off with crispy breadcrumbs, this Hamburger Casserole is the very definition of family-friendly. With veggies, whole grains, and healthy swaps, it’s a nutritious option too!

Ingredients:

1 (1lb) box medium pasta shells

1lb ground beef

2 (10oz) cans tomato soup

2 cups shredded cheddar

1 cup shredded mozzarella

1/2 cup water

garlic, salt & pepper to taste

How To Make Hamburger Casserole:

Cook and drain the pasta according to the package directions.
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 375 degrees and grease and 9×13 baking dish.

In a large skillet, brown and chop the ground beef with garlic powder, salt and pepper (or any seasoning of your choice).

Add the cooked pasta, tomato soup, a half cup of water and HALF of the cheese to your skillet with the browned beef; stir and cook for 2-3 minutes over medium heat.

Pour the mixture into your greased dish and top with the remaining cheese.

Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Uncover and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes (I also like to turn the broiler on for the last 2-3 minutes to brown the cheese).

Serve immediately and store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Enjoy.
