Bolognese Pasta Bake

ingredients

• 3 cups bolognese sauce (homemade or store-bought)
• 500g penne pasta (uncooked)
• 5-6 basil leaves
• 3 tbsp parmesan cheese
• 2 tbsp pecorino cheese
• 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese (more if you need!)

method

1. Preheat oven to 180°C fan-forced.
2. Cook pasta according to packet instructions, but take two minutes off the cook time (It will cook in the oven with the sauce!)
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the pasta and the sauce. Sprinkle half the cheese into the bowl and mix through.
4. Into a deep baking dish, pour mixture and spread edge to edge.
5. Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top and add basil leaves over the top.
6. Place into the oven for 30 minutes or until lightly golden brown on the top.
7. Take out and leave to rest for 15 minutes.
8. EAT!
