Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375F and spray a 9×13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray; set aside.
- Cook pasta according to package directions and drain.
- While the pasta is cooking, to a large Dutch oven, optionally add the olive oil (my beef was very lean and the oil was necessary), beef, onion, red pepper, and cook over medium-high heat until beef is cooked through and vegetables have softened; stir frequently and crumble the beef while it cooks; do not drain.
- Add the garlic, oregano, salt, pepper, and stir to combine. Cook for about 1 minute, or until garlic is fragrant.
- Add the cooked pasta to the beef mixture, add the marinara, and stir to combine and coat evenly.
- Add 1 1/2 cups cheese and stir to combine until the cheese has melted.
- Turn mixture out into the prepared baking dish and evenly sprinkle the remaining 1 1/2 cups cheese over the top.
- Bake for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until the cheese has melted on top.
- Optionally garnish with fresh herbs and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 2-quart casserole dish with nonstick spray. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion, zucchini, garlic and red pepper flakes-- cook, stirring, until the vegetables are softened-- about 5 minutes. Remove the vegetables to a bowl and set aside. Add the beef to the pan and cook, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned- 8 to 10 minutes. Drain off any accumulated oil and discard. Add the cooked vegetables, penne and sauce to the pan and mix to combine. Spoon the pasta mixture into the prepared casserole dish. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake until the cheese is melted and the filling is hot and bubbly- 20 to 25 minutes. Sprinkle fresh basil on top and serve.
CHEESY LAYERED GROUND BEEF AND PASTA CASSEROLE
This is a great casserole, it tastes similar to lasagna. You can also top with grated cheese the last 15 minutes of baking if desired, I also like to add in some green bell pepper and dried chili flakes for heat but that is optional.
