EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

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.

Great dish! Added some mushrooms, green bell peppers and carrots. Tastes delicious and is a great way to use up the veggies in the fridge without having to stop at the store on the way home!

Perfectly tasty, but nothing special. It's an everyday pasta bake.

I just made this tonight and it turned out great! It was super easy and cooked up like a dream. It was flavorful without being overbearing, and mild without being bland-it was perfect! I served it with crescent rolls. I like this dish because there is room for creativity (for example, I'm thinking of adding green peppers next time), but the basic recipe is delicious!
