One Pot Cheeseburger Casserole

Yesterday I came home around 8.40 pm and was so cold. My hand and feet were freezing cold. Hey, isn't tomorrow suppose to be the first day of Spring? Then why do we still get snow? People in NEPA have enough of this miserable weather.

Got the ground beef out from the fridge and I'm ready to cook. Damn Delicious® has a lot of simple yet delicious recipes. I found this recipe good for a busy weekday. Pasta and everything else cook in one pot for less than 30 minutes? Count me in!

Who's ready for some cheesy, warm casserole for this winter?


Ingredients
1 T olive oil
1 1/2 lbs ground beef
1 onion, diced
salt and pepper to taste
28 oz diced tomatoes
8 oz tomato sauce
2 C chicken broth
1/4 C ketchup
2 t dijon mustard
1 lb rotini pasta
2 C shredded cheddar cheese
1 roma tomato
2 green onion, sliced


Directions
Heat olive oil in a large stockpot over medium high heat. Add ground beef and onion to cook until beef has browned, about 3 to 5 minutes. Make sure to crumble the beef as it cooks; season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Stir in tomatoes, tomato sauce, chicken broth, ketchup, mustard, pasta and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat and simmer until pasta is cooked through, about 13-16 minutes.

Remove from heat and top with cheese. Cover until cheese has melted, about 2 minutes.

Serve immediately, garnished with tomato and green onions, if desired.
