Pizza Pasta Casserole

from:   http://freezermealsforus.blogspot.com

2 lbs ground beef - I just used one pkg ground beef (a little over 1lb) and it was plenty!
1 large onion chopped
1 clove garlic minced
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 (26 once) jars spaghetti sauce
16 ounces rotini pasta, cooked and drained
5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
8 ounces sliced pepperoni

Brown ground beef, onion, and garlic in oil. Drain. Stir in pasta, seasoning, spaghetti sauce, and 3 cups cheese. Place mixture in 2 greased 9x13 pans or 2 8x8 pans. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Top with pepperoni (I would mix the pepperoni in when you put the pasta in so it is throughout!). Cover and freeze or bake uncovered at 350 for 25-30 minutes or until heated through.  I froze one 8x8 pan and cooked the other one.  I like to add parmesan cheese too!

Beef Enchiladas

1lb ground beef
1 package taco seasoning
1 cup water
2 cups rice, cooked
1 16 oz can refried beans
2 cups shredded cheese, divided
10, 8 inch, flour tortillas

Red Sauce-
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon onion, minced
½ teaspoon dried oregano

½ teaspoon dried basil
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried parsley
¼ cup salsa
1 6 oz. can tomato sauce
1 ½ cups water 

 * My suggestion is to just buy canned red sauce.  This took a lot of time and wasn't that great...but the overall meal was YUMMY!

To make enchilada sauce- Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add the onion, chili powder, oregano, basil, ground black pepper, salt, cumin, parsley, tomato sauce and salsa. Mix well and then stir in the water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.


* In large skillet, brown ground beef over medium heat. Drain. Stir in taco seasoning and water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 5 minutes. Stir in the rice. Cook and stir until the liquid is evaporated. Spread 2 tablespoon refried beans, ¼ cup ground beef mixture, and 1 tablespoon of cheese down the center of each flour tortilla. Roll up and place seam side down in a greased 9x13 baking pan. Repeat until all tortillas are filled.  Top enchiladas with red sauce and with the remaining cheese.


* Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until heated through and the cheese has melted.
