Baked Rigatoni

I love casseroles and I love pasta.  This is both.  It is delicious and creamy.  There is melty cheese.  Oh, and I didn't have to bake it in the oven.  That is important right now.

I like rigatoni in this recipe.  It is big enough to get sauce inside and it also get a little bit smushed in the casserole.  Yum.

Note:  I didn't actually measure any of these ingredients.  If you want a little more or a little less of something, go for it!


Ingredients
1/2 pound Italian sausage
24 oz pasta sauce
1/4 cup sour cream
8 oz shredded mozzarella
1/2 pound rigatoni

Boil your pasta.  Meanwhile, cook your Italian sausage, breaking it up into smallish pieces.  Mix cooked Italian sausage, pasta sauce, sour cream, and most of the mozzarella in a microwave and oven safe casserole dish.  Stir in the cooked rigatoni.

Microwave for about 5 minutes with the lid on until it is heated through.  Toss the remaining mozzarella on top and broil in the oven for about 5 more minutes with the lid off until the cheese is melted and golden.
