Baked Eyeballs Casserole

The "eyeballs" that top our spooky casserole are made from mozzarella cheese and sliced olives.  But the cheesy, baked pasta that lies below is a real treat that everyone will enjoy.

Vegetable cooking spray

1 jar (24 ounces) Prego® Italian Sausage & Garlic Italian Sauce

1 container (15 ounces) part-skim ricotta cheese

3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

7 cups bow tie-shaped pasta, cooked and drained

1 container (8 ounces) small fresh mozzarella cheese balls (about 1-inch)

2 tablespoons sliced pitted ripe olives

  • Spray a 13 x 9 x 2-inch shallow baking dish with the cooking spray.
  • Mix 1 1/2 cups of the sauce, ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and pasta in the prepared dish. Spread the remaining sauce over the pasta mixture. Sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan cheese and cover the dish with foil.
  • Bake at 400°F. for 25 minutes or until hot and bubbling. Arrange the cheese balls randomly over the pasta mixture. Place a sliced olive on each cheese ball. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

RECIPE TIPS

  • Tip: Easy Substitution Tip: If fresh mozzarella cheese balls are not available, substitute 1 package (8 ounces) fresh mozzarella cheese. Cut crosswise into thirds. Cut each third in 6 wedges, for triangle-shaped eyes.
