Casserole Bowls
For an easy meal try this recipe for a Beef and Macaroni Casserole that is just a little different. With the coriander, tumeric, lemon juice, and Feta cheese this casserole will bring a refreshingly different twist to the usual ground beef macaroni casseroles. Add the Orange Almond Salad and you have an easy but delicious meal requiring little preparation time.
BEEF AND MACARONI CASSEROLE WITH FETA CHEESE
12 oz pkg whole grain elbow macaroni
1 tbsp olive oil
1 med onion, peeled, finely chopped
1/4 tsp turmeric
1/4 tsp ground corriander
1/4 tsp pepper
1 lb lean ground beef
2 tbsp lemon juice
1/2 cup chopped parsley
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
2 tbsp bread crumbs
2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Cook macaroni according to package directions until just tender. Drain . Heat the oil in a non-stick pan and cook onion over low heat until softened. Stir in the spices. Crumble in the beef and cook until no longer pink. Stir in the lemon juice. Remove from heat and stir in parsley. Spray a large baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Mix with macaroni with the meat mixture and half of the feta cheese. Place mixture into prepared pan. Top with the remaining feta cheese. Sprinkle the bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese over the top.
