Menu Monday - Cheesy Pasta Bake

Quick and easy meals are essential for any mommy to have in her survival kit. This is a perfect dish to make on a busy day. It is great for potlucks and for blessing new mommies with dinner as it travels well and makes great left-overs. I usually have all of the ingredients on hand so I can throw it together any time I need something quick and easy.

Cheesy Pasta Bake

  • 16 oz bag of Penne Rigatte pasta
  • 3-4 cups spegahtti sauce (meatless) - I just use a 26.5 oz can
  • 1 small can sliced black olives
  • 2 cups grated mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grate parmasan cheese


Boil pasta according to package.
In a 9x13 pan, mix 1 1/2 cups mozarella, the parmassan, almost all of the olives (leave out a few to sprinkile on the top.) and the sauce.
Add the cooked, drained pasta making sure it is throughoughly mixed.
Sprinkle the rest of the mozarella and the remianing olives on top.
Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 30 minutes.

Serve with a green veggie and bread.
