This Sloppy Joe casserole is a great comfort food recipe that I love to make on a cold winter day. It's always a hit at potluck dinners.

Ingredients

  • 1 package penne pasta , 16 ounce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 5.5 pounds ground beef
  • 1 medium yellow onion , chopped
  • 1 small red bell pepper , chopped
  • 1 small green bell pepper , chopped
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 2 cans tomato sauce , 15-ounce
  • 0.5 cups ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
  • 2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 2 cups frozen yellow corn kernels
  • 1.5 cups shredded Colby-Jack cheese , divided
  • cooking spray

Instructions

  1. 1

    Gather ingredients and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add pasta and cook according to package directions for al dente. Drain.

  3. 3

    While pasta cooks, heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high. Add beef and cook, stirring often to crumble, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Stir in onion, bell peppers, paprika, garlic powder, and salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened, about 4 minutes.

  5. 5

    Stir in tomato sauce, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire, and brown sugar; bring to a boil over medium-high. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Remove from heat, stir in cooked pasta, corn, and 3/4 cup of the cheese.

  7. 7

    Coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray; transfer beef and pasta mixture into the dish. Sprinkle evenly with remaining 3/4 cup cheese.

  8. 8

    Bake in preheated oven until heated through and cheese is melted, about 20 minutes.

  9. 9

    Serve warm and enjoy!
