An old casserole recipe! It's so delicious that my kids ask to make it every day!

Welcome to my kitchen, where today, we're whipping up a hearty Pasta Casserole that's sure to satisfy any craving. We'll start by boiling up some pasta, adding a teaspoon of salt to the water for flavor. Once cooked, we'll layer it with a savory mix of minced meat seasoned to perfection. A creamy egg mixture adds richness, topped with a generous sprinkle of cheese for that irresistible golden finish. While our casserole bakes, we'll prep a fresh salad with cherry tomatoes, red onions, avocado, and mozzarella cheese, dressed in a zesty olive oil and lemon juice vinaigrette. Our casserole is ready! Let's dish it up and dig in for a delicious meal. Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe for more tasty recipes. Happy cooking!

Putting oil in your pasta water, is a "no no" ! it may help your pasta to keep from sticking, but it will also keep anything from absorbing into the pasta. You don't need oil. Frequent stirring will keep your pasta from sticking ! Forgo the oil. Your pasta dish will turn out much better without it ! You want your pasta to absorb all the goodness from the sauce you have made.

Tout à fait, en ce qui concerne l'huile d'olive. Mais le pire, c'est la mayonnaise industrielle, rajoutée à l'appareil 😂

[@jerryoshea3116]

Correct,i made the same point that it's a No,No! And someone responded with ' She's not an Italian' WTF!! Stupidity is worn like a badge of honour these days!

[@cnobillbradley9673]

I concur!

[@Ganjagrl]

I love the part where you stir to evenly distribute the oil. In the water.

[@yaraabb8146]

Thank you for the tip.

[@jenniferjohnson7279]

Does anyone realize how healthy and simple this food is. My mother never used cooking oil,only olive oil. she also didn't use mayonnaise, only sour cream or mustard for flavor.and yes,butter...never margarine. We were very lucky to grow up so healthy.

[@susanmackie7801]

What did she use in place?

[@wunziesmum]

Olive oil, sour cream, mustard and butter.

[@gloriabell9448]

This is NOT an Italian pasta dish! Besides, why always add eggs? I’ll do the ground meat, onions, garlic , maybe add broccoli or black olives & pasta sauce. I only like my eggs scrambled or in an omelette! Plenty of chess is good, maybe at the end add some crushed garlic croutons!

[@number1angel66]

Thanks for sharing this recipe! Don't mind the critics, if people don't like using a specific ingredient they can omit it. It's your recipe and you should continue making it your way! I wish more parents would have taught their children "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." lol

It's a Nutmeg Grater! You should be able to buy it about anywhere where kitchen utensils are sold! Look for the name, Nutmeg Grater! God Bless 🙏❤🔥🇺🇸

[@Elizabeth-tb5wh]

I have one just like it that my mom gave me and I use it all the time! They are sharp little buggers and get the job done. I’ve used mine to grate cheese or carrots for a salad. It’s a great little tool. Pick one up if you run across one! @beverly5458 ❤️🙏🏻

[@Marny5580]

I have one just like it ... and it is very handy and fits in my flatware drawer easily.

Hey from West Texas! It's 2:30 a.m. and I'm ravenous AND I've been on a diet for almost 6 months.... No pasta, no bread, no white flour anything, no sugar....... So this looks FANTASTIC but, of course, can't have it. I've got to lose this weight. It's killing me. But this would be great to have for if my kids ever come see me!!

This looks so simple and delicious. Will give it a try.

[@sharcrum]

I think it needs cheese in the layers, such as ricotta, like a lasagna would have. And, yes, it needs some tomato sauce or something! And i just ate a salad kind of like that this evening!!!

[@queenslanddiva]

not everything needs tomatoes

[@s_hart]

Some people believe if it's not drowning in some kind of fattening/sweetened sauce it's considered "dry" lol! The cheese alone will let out enough oil to not make it dry

[@nahlabella4857]

Both casserole & salad look scrumptious! Thanks for posting, and especially giving Tablespoons, teaspoons, cups etc. measurements. Its always difficult for me to figure out quantities if the measurements are metric. Also, my eyes don't work like they used to, (i turned 75 this year) so i appreciate that you speak the ingredients. 😂 I'm in Washington State, in the very "top" Northwest corner of the USA. I live almost in Canada. Its a 30 to 45 minute drive north. Have a great day! Thanks again
