Easy Dump and Bake Meatball Casserole
Ingredients:
1 lb frozen meatballs
1 (24 oz) jar marinara sauce
1 cup water
2 cups uncooked pasta (such as penne or rotini)
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In the prepared baking dish, combine the frozen meatballs, marinara sauce, water, uncooked pasta, shredded mozzarella cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning. Stir well to combine.
Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and give the casserole a stir.
Return the dish to the oven, uncovered, and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the pasta is tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, before serving.
