Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (16 ounce) package mostaccioli or medium tube pasta
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 pound ground venison
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
¼ teaspoon dried basil
⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
3 cups grated Mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

Top with the sauce, layer with pasta, and half of the Mozzarella. Repeat the layers to use the remaining ingredients, ending with a layer of Mozzarella cheese. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil cover and bake until the cheese topping is light gold, about 10 minutes more.
