RadiantRaptor+FollowCheesy Brussels Sprouts Casserole with Bacon—You Need This!Preheat your oven to 375°F. Start by crisping up 5 slices of bacon in a large ovenproof skillet. Once they're done, set them aside on a paper towel and chop them up when cool. Toss out the bacon fat, then melt 3 tablespoons of butter in the same skillet. Add 2 finely chopped shallots and 2 pounds of halved Brussels sprouts. Season with kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring now and then, until everything is tender. Take the skillet off the heat, pour in 3/4 cup heavy cream, and sprinkle on 1/2 cup each of shredded Gruyère and sharp white cheddar. Top with your chopped bacon. Bake for 12-15 minutes until the cheese is bubbly. Broil for a minute if you want that golden top. It’s creamy, cheesy, and totally irresistible! #BrusselsSprouts #CasseroleRecipe #CheesyGoodness #Food #Cooking120Share
MysticMirage+FollowCheesy Pasta Bake Perfection 🍝🧀 How I Get That Golden Top Every TimeMaking a pasta bake always starts with boiling the pasta just shy of al dente—otherwise, it gets too soft after baking. I like to mix cooked penne with a chunky tomato sauce, usually with garlic, onions, and a little Italian seasoning. Once everything’s combined, I layer it in a baking dish and add a ton of shredded mozzarella and a sprinkle of parmesan on top. The trick for that perfect golden crust is to bake uncovered for the last 10 minutes. Sometimes I’ll toss in some spinach or leftover chicken for extra texture. Letting it cool for a few minutes before serving helps the cheese set and makes it easier to slice. #PastaBake #CheesyGoodness #EasyDinner #Food #Cooking10Share

SereneSamurai+FollowCheesy Pasta Bake Perfection in MinutesBoil your favorite pasta until just al dente—don’t overcook, since it’ll keep cooking in the oven. While that’s going, sauté some garlic and onions, then add a jar of tomato sauce (or homemade if you’re feeling fancy). Let it simmer for a few minutes. Mix the drained pasta with the sauce, then layer it in a baking dish with lots of shredded mozzarella and a sprinkle of parmesan. Don’t be shy with the cheese! Bake at 375°F for about 20 minutes, or until the top is bubbly and golden. The trick? Let it rest for 5 minutes before serving so it sets up perfectly. This is my go-to comfort food when I want something easy but super satisfying. #PastaBake #EasyRecipes #CheesyGoodness #Food #Cooking90Share
