asked them for the recipe and they gave it to me

on in this blog post. I also prepared it for my family
when I came back at home and they really loved it
too and that’s the first positive public feedback
confirmation for this recipe and that gave me enough

Instructions

1. First of all take a large skillet and apply medium heat (not too high and not too low).
2. Then take a bowl and add chopped onions and olive oil and mix them and then put them in the skillet for about 5 to 6 minutes till they become tender.
3. Now take the ground beef and sausage and carefully cook them well till they are browned and cooked.
4. Now get rid of the grease and just leave a little on the skillet so that it remains moisture.
5. Now take the canned tomatoes, garlic and the tomato sauce and add it in and make sure you stir them well.
6. Now take the Italian seasoning and also it in as well along with salt and pepper and don’t forget the red pepper flakes add them in too and combine them well.
7. Once all of them are combined add 1 C of sauce to a bowl and put it aside to cool while cover again the remaining sauce and cook it at nice and low temperature for more 20 minutes.
8. While the yummy meat sauce is being carefully and slowly cooked, now take a large pot of water and heat it and cook pasta in it along with salt till it becomes tender.
9. While all of this is happening take another bowl and add egg, cheese, ricotta cheese, Italian seasoning along with the yummy parmesan cheese.
10. Now if the pasta is cooked and is done than drain it and add the sauce which we have left to cool and combine them well.
11. Now take big dish or bowl and apply a little grease on it with cooking spray.
12. Add the cheese and that meat mixture in the form of layers on it and while all of this is done the final layer would be of dried basil. So apply dried basil as a final layer on top of the cheese.
13. Now preheat the oven to about 350 degrees for about 45 minutes.
14. Closely observe that when the cheese starts to brown and the mixture becomes bubbly remove it and now your Italian rigatoni bake is ready.
