Clear Out The Fridge Baked Pasta Recipe

Clear Out The Fridge Baked Pasta Recipe... Kind of a loose take on an Anelletti al Forno Recipe.

Ingredients:
30 mL (2 Tbsp) oil or fat
2 slices bacon, chopped
1 medium carrot, chopped
1 medium celery stalk, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
250g (½ pound) ground beef
250g (½ pound) ground pork
75 mL (1/3 cup) tomato paste
125 mL (½ cup) red wine
½ tsp. ground cinnamon
Pinch nutmeg
1 - 596 mL (28-oz.) can tomatoes
60 mL (¼ cup) bread crumbs
1 Kg (2 lb) dry small pasta
12 oz. provolone cheese, sliced
Grated Pecorino Romano cheese


Method:
Heat a large pot over medium high heat with a little oil and fry the bacon.
When the bacon crisps up a bit, add in the carrot, celery, and onion; fry until softened.
Remove the veg/bacon from the pot; add the beef and pork and brown.
When the beef and pork is brown, return the veg/bacon and add the tomato paste; fry a few minutes longer.
Stir in the wine, and cook until liquid is reduced; scraping up the fond on the bottom of the pot.
Stir in the cinnamon, nutmeg, and tomatoes - lower the heat, cover and simmer for an hour or so.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook pasta according to package instructions.
When pasta is cooked, add to the sauce and toss to coat.
Lightly grease a 9”x13” baking dish and sprinkle bottom with bread crumbs.
Layer pasta, cheese, and bread crumbs into baking dish; then bake at 350ºF for 25-30 minutes.


This summer (June 2023) I'm flying in a 2,086nm fundraiser for Hope Air, an organisation that helps lower income Canadians or those who live in remote areas access healthcare by providing flights (through private pilots and airlines) to larger urban centres.
