Feta Pasta Bake

So, I missed a post. I'm not proud of it, but hey, it happens. So who doesn't love Feta? It's tart and pungent and creamy and sweet all at the same time. It can be melted or crumbly. Seriously what isn't there to love? Put it on salads, in pasta, marinate it with olives (that's another time), just soooooo....wait for it....yummy.

So today we are making Feta Pasta Bake:

The first thing you want to do is get 1/2lb ground beef and brown it, draining off the grease when done.

Next you will bring a pot of water to a rolling boil and boil 1/2lb of your favorite short pasta, I used rigatoni.

While you are doing this, preheat the oven to 350 degrees, and butter a casserole dish, yes butter.

Mix together the ground beef with a minimum of 12oz of pasta sauce, you can use more if you like.

Then add 1/2lb of feta, and 1 tbsp butter. Once the pasta is done drain and add to the mixture.

 

Place in the buttered casserole dish. Mix together 3 eggs and 1 1/4c milk in the same bowl you just mixed everything else, then top casserole, pressing the pasta down so that most of it is covered with the egg mix.

 Bake for 45 minutes.

YUMMMMMM!!!!
