Swap out the bun for this sloppy joe casserole full of pasta and a sweet ground beef mixture. All of the meaty and delicious flavors of a sloppy joe sandwich transform into an easy weeknight meal your family will love!
Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare a 2-quart casserole dish by spraying it with cooking spray.
In a medium-sized skillet add the olive oil and onion over medium-high heat. Sauté until almost tender and add the ground beef and cook and crumble until no longer pink.
Add the garlic, ketchup, brown sugar, chili powder, paprika, Worcestershire sauce salt, and pepper. Let simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Add the cooked drained pasta into the sloppy joe mixture. Stir to combine.
Pour half of the sloppy jo mixture into the prepared pan. Top with 1 cup of shredded cheese. Add the rest of the sloppy joe mixture to the pan then sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of cheese on top.
Bake the casserole for 15-20 minutes until warmed through and the cheese is melted. Enjoy warm!
