Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x13 baking dish. In a large saucepan, brown the ground beef over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease. Add the pasta sauce and Italian seasoning to the beef. Mix well and bring to a simmer. Cover the pan, reduce the heat to a low simmer and let cook, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes. While the sauce is simmering, cook the rigatoni as directed on the package. Drain well. Combine the ricotta cheese, 1 cup of the mozzarella, the parmesan, and eggs in a bowl. Mix well. Spread about 1 cup of the pasta sauce in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Top with half of the rigatoni. Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the pasta. Top with half of the remaining pasta sauce. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese over the sauce. Repeat the layers of the pasta, ricotta, and sauce. Place the baking pan in the oven and bake for 45 minutes or until bubbly in the center. Remove from the oven and let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Top with additional grated parmesan cheese, if desired.

RIGATONI CASSEROLE
This was my favourite meal growing up as a kid. My Mom always let us pick the family's meal on our birthdays, and I always picked this, even though my Mom didn't like using the oven in the heat of August. I still love it today! It is my "comfort food" and I make it often. It is great for dinner parties, too. Add some garlic bread and a salad and you have a great meal!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- For the topping: Add the ricotta, basil, and salt to a small bowl. Stir together with a rubber spatula. Set aside.
- For the pasta: Bring a large pot of water to boil. Season well with salt and cook the rigatoni for 5 minutes. Drain well, reserving 1/2 cup pasta water.
- Meanwhile, heat a large braiser or ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and sausage to the pan. Cook, stirring often and breaking apart the meat with the back of a spoon, until beginning to brown, about 7 minutes. Add the broccoli and garlic and cook to marry the flavors, about 3 minutes. Stir in the marinara and 1/4 teaspoon salt until fully combined. Add the pasta to the pan and sprinkle with 1/2 cup of the Parmesan cheese. Toss well to coat. Add the reserved pasta water to thin the sauce slightly.
- Dollop the ricotta cheese mixture evenly over the top. Nestle the ricotta mixture into the pasta and cover with some of the pasta. Sprinkle with the mozzarella and remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and bake until golden brown and bubbly, about 20 minutes. Allow to sit for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the rigatoni according to the package instructions; drain and set aside to cool.
- Saute the onions in the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Crumble in the sausage, add the crushed red pepper and cook for a couple of minutes. Add the marinara sauce, mix everything together and cook for 5 to 7 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- To assemble, add about 2 spoonfuls of the sauce--just enough to coat the bottom--to a baking dish. Then layer half of the cooled noodles, half of the mozzarella cubes and half of the remaining sauce. Repeat the process: layer the remaining noodles, mozzarella and sauce, then top with the Parmesan. Cover and put in the fridge or freezer until ready to cook.
- When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cook the rigatoni until heated through and bubbling, 25 minutes straight from the fridge, or 2 hours straight from the freezer. Garnish with minced parsley before serving.
