INGREDIENTS

3
 cups uncooked rotini pasta (8 oz)
1
 lb lean (at least 80%) ground beef
1
 large onion, chopped (1 cup)
1
 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2
 teaspoon salt
1
 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes, undrained
1
 can (15 oz) tomato sauce
1
 tablespoon sugar
1
 cup shredded American-Cheddar cheese blend (4 oz)

DIRECTIONS

1 Heat oven to 350°F. Cook and drain pasta as directed on package. 2 Meanwhile, in 10-inch skillet, cook beef, onion, garlic powder and salt over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beef is thoroughly cooked; drain. 3 Stir in tomatoes, tomato sauce, sugar and pasta. Pour into ungreased 8-inch square (2-quart) glass baking dish. 4 Cover dish with foil. Bake 30 to 40 minutes or until bubbly around edges. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake uncovered 5 to 10 minutes longer or until cheese is melted.
Slightly undercook the rotini for perfect al dente pasta in casseroles.
Like things spicy? Use 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes with green chiles instead of plain diced tomatoes.
