Classic casseroles: hearty comfort dishes

Lovers of hearty home cooking will get their money's worth with the classic pasta casseroles.

Four delicious recipes are waiting to be discovered!

Let's start with the pasta bake with minced meat (1) - the classic among pasta bakes.

Minced meat, tomato sauce and cheese – simple, tasty and always good!

This is closely followed by the pasta and ham gratin (2), which ensures a perfect feel-good experience with a creamy béchamel sauce, ham and cheese.

Pasta, ham and cauliflower end up together in the cauliflower pasta casserole with ham (3) in the oven and an aromatic mussel pasta casserole with tuna (4) attracts everyone's attention as soon as it is placed in the middle of the table.

Casseroles with tortellini: A change with the filled pasta classic

Tortellini are not only suitable for soups and salads, but are also ideal for casseroles.

There are several creative recipes with tortellini in the Simply Tasty photo series!

A simple and quick casserole that is perfect for the whole family is the tortellini casserole with ham and peas (5).

The salmon tortellini casserole (6), which consists of only five ingredients and can still serve as a sophisticated dish for special occasions, is prepared even quicker.

Does lasagna actually count as a classic pasta bake?

Probably not, but tortellini are not lasagna noodles either and therefore a simple tortellini lasagne with mozzarella (7) also deserves a place here.

At the end of this category there is a tortellini casserole with lots of vegetables and a creamy cheese sauce (8), which scores points with an innovative “put everything in one shape and it's good” preparation method.

Special pasta dishes: unusual recipe ideas from the oven

In addition to the classic pasta bakes, the photo gallery also contains more than a handful of unusual pasta dishes from the oven that are guaranteed to surprise.

Among these special dishes is the “Quick Oven Salmon Pasta with Spinach” (9), a quick and easy option, perfect for your lunch break.

The “Lemon Pasta Muffins” (10) combine pasta with a muffin-like concept and offer an original finger food dish.

The ravioli lasagna (11) is a time-saving alternative to traditional lasagna, as it simply uses canned ravioli.

Another highlight is the cheeseburger pasta bake (12), which offers the ultimate combination of cheeseburger and pasta bake - an absolute must for all fast food fans.

The Gyros Pasta Bake (13) combines the hearty flavors of Greece with the creamy texture of Italian pasta in a dish that melds cultures on one plate.

And finally, Simply Tasty presents the “Pasta Cake” (14), a savory cake made from rigatoni pasta, cream cheese and spinach, which is particularly suitable for parties and buffets.
