Beef and Parmesan Pasta Strata Casserole

Beef and Parmesan Pasta Strata Casserole

An elegant yet easy, cheesy beef & noodle casserole with assorted vegetables that you can prepare in your toaster-oven.

Serves
2-3
Ingredients
17 oz Charlie’s Pride Pot Roast
4 oz Wide egg noodles
1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
¼ cup Freshly grated Parmesan cheese, lightly packed (preferably Parmesan Reggiano)
1 heaping cup Frozen vegetable medley of your choice
Directions

Preheat oven to 425°F and spray a 10” round baking dish (glass pie pan is ideal, adjust as needed for use in toaster oven) with non-stick spray. Bring 1½ quarts (6 cups) water with salt to a boil in a large saucepot. Heat Charlie’s Pride Pot Roast in microwave or stovetop just until heated through. Add pasta to boiling water; boil for 7 minutes. Remove from heat, drain thoroughly. Place half the cooked pasta in a separate bowl and toss with oil, then Parmesan. Place heated pot roast into the empty pasta pot. Fold in remaining drained pasta and frozen vegetables. Pour beef & vegetable mix into the prepared baking dish and top with reserved Parmesan pasta. Bake as directed until pasta is golden brown.

Standard Toaster Oven: lower shelf for 20 minutes (or 15 minutes for convection).
Conventional Oven: in the top half for 20 minutes (or 15 minutes for convection).
