Mission: Beef Penne Pasta Casserole

This is a great family casserole because both Jason and I love it and Charlotte loves it as well! I just cut up her penne noodles into halves or thirds so it's easier for her to eat. It has been a huge hit!

Beef Penne Pasta Casserole
1 lb. penne pasta, cooked and drained
8 oz. lean ground beef
1 small onion, chopped
12 oz. tomato paste
2 cups water
1/3 cup red wine or water
1 Tbsp. instant beef bouillon
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Salt, to taste

Preheat oven to 350. Saute ground beef and onion in large saucepan, stirring occasionally, until beef is no longer pink.
Add water, tomato paste, wine and bouillon; cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes or until flavors are blended.
Layer ingredients as follows in an ungreased 13x9-inch baking dish: 1/2 pasta, 1/2 sauce and 1/2 cheese. Repeat layers and cover. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until heated through and cheese is melted.
