Sometimes you just have to look around your pantry and refrigerator and pull dinner out of seemingly nowhere. Yesterday I did just that by cobbling together ingredients I already had on hand and created something new and delicious.

Here's dinner for tonight- The Easiest Bowtie Recipe Ever! Plus it's a great pasta recipe that's also a budget-friendly recipe!

Ingredients for Bowtie Pasta Recipe

  • 1 Box Bowtie Pasta
  • 5 lb. Ground Beef
  • 1 Jar Ragu Alfredo Sauce
  • 1 Cup Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese
  • 1 Can Campbell’s Cream of Mushroom
  • 2 Medium Onions (Chopped)
  • 2 Stems Chives (Chopped)
  • 2 Tlbs Land of Lakes Butter
  • 1/3 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream
  • 3-4 Stalks of Celery  (Chopped)
  • 2-3 Cloves of Garlic  (Minced)
  • Olive Oil
  • Kosher Salt
  • Fresh Cracked Black Pepper
  • Breadcrumbs to sprinkle on top

 Directions:

  1. In a large skillet brown 5 lbs. of ground beef. While meat is browning I chopped 3-4 stalks of celery, 2 medium-sized yellow onions, 2-3 cloves of garlic and tossed them in with the meat to soften.
  2. Once the ground beef and vegetables were finished I set them aside. Fill a large stock pot with water and bring to a boil. Add Bowtie pasta with a pinch of Kosher salt and a drizzle of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. After the pasta is cooked, drain it and set it aside.
  3. In a large sauce pot combine 1 jar of Ragu Alfredo sauce, 1 can of Cream of Mushroom,  2 lbs of butter, and 1/3 Heavy cream. Stir over low to medium heat until blended smooth.
  4. In a large casserole dish add bowtie pasta, cooked ground beef, and vegetables. Pour sauce over past and beef and mix well. Add Kosher Salt and Fresh Cracked Black Pepper to taste. Add 1 cup of Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese and bake at 350 for 40 minutes. Serve hot.
