To make this casrole, start by cooking the pasta according to the package instructions. Then, while the pasta is cooking, brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat.

Next, add diced onions and minced garlic to the skillet with the ground beef and sauté until they are softened and fragrant. This will add a depth of flavor to the casserole.

Mix in a combination of shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese, allowing it to melt and coat the beef and onions. The cheese will add a rich and gooey texture to the casserole.

To give the dish a hint of that classic cheeseburger taste, add a few spoonfuls of ketchup, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. These condiments will enhance the flavors and create a tangy and savory profile.

Once everything is well combined, transfer the mixture to a greased casserole dish. Top it off with a generous layer of shredded cheese, which will melt and create a golden crust on the top. For an extra touch of indulgence, sprinkle some crispy bacon bits over the cheese.

Bake the casserole in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 20-25 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. The aroma filling your kitchen will be absolutely irresistible!

When the Cheeseburger Pasta Casserole is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.

Garnish the casserole with some fresh chopped parsley for a pop of color and a hint of freshness. Serve it alongside a crisp salad or some steamed vegetables for a complete and satisfying meal.
