Description

A quick casserole using leftover ingredients turns meatloaf, pasta, 2 kinds of cheese, and spices into a whole new meal.

Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) package rotini pasta
4 slices leftover meatloaf, or to taste
1 cup frozen corn
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 dash Italian seasoning
1 dash dried basil
1 dash dried oregano
1 dash onion powder
1 dash garlic powder
salt
1 dash ground black pepper
1 tablespoon white sugar
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/3 cup Italian bread crumbs
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Directions

1 Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; cook the rotini at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.
2 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
3 While pasta cooks, mash meatloaf in a 2 1/2-quart casserole dish. Add corn and mix.
4 Combine tomato sauce, Italian seasoning, basil, oregano, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and sugar in a bowl. Stir well.
5 Drain pasta and add to the meatloaf mixture in the casserole dish. Mix in tomato sauce mixture. Top with Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, and Cheddar cheese.
6 Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly, 30 to 45 minutes.
