Ingredients

• 1 (1 ounce) package dry onion soup mix
• 1 pound ground beef
• 2 (6.5 ounce) cans tomato sauce
• 1 (14 ounce) can whole kernel corn
• 1 (14 ounce) can cream-style corn
• 1 (16 ounce) package shell pasta
• 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, or to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook shell pasta in boiling water, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but firm to the bite, 12 minutes; drain.

Step 3

Heat an oven-safe Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef with the onion soup mix in the pot until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir tomato sauce, whole kernel corn, and cream-style corn into the beef; add drained shell pasta and stir.

Step 4

Transfer Dutch oven to the preheated oven and bake for 23 minutes. Stir casserole, top with cheese, and continue baking until the cheese melts, about 5 minutes more.
