Cheesy Cream Cheese Hamburger Pasta Casserole
Cheesy Cream Cheese Hamburger Pasta Casserole - is a delicious comfort food casserole. My family has been making this ooey gooey cheesy casserole for years.
Continue to cook until veggies are just tender. In the meantime in a medium pot boil water and cook 12 oz of your favorite pasta. I use something different all the time. I like pasta with lines for this because it tends to hold the sauce better. This is what I used.
