  • Don't overcook the ground beef. Cook it until it is just browned, or it will become tough.
  • Add a little bit of sugar to the sauce to help balance out the acidity of the tomatoes.
  • Let the sauce simmer for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Use a variety of cheeses in the filling. A combination of ricotta, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese will give you a rich, flavorful filling.
  • Don't overcook the mostaccioli. Cook it until it is al dente, or it will become mushy.
  • Serve the mostaccioli immediately, topped with additional Parmesan cheese and fresh basil.
