This gooey, yummy, delicious baked fettuccine recipe is all you’d want to eat today. Baked fettuccine pasta can be made with different meat: ground pork, ground turkey, mushroom, sausage, or meatless. Do you want to avoid going through layering like lasagna? No problem, you can mix as shown in the instructions.
If you want to do layering, you can put sauce on the bottom, next is your cheese, then pasta, you’ll repeat the process, then top with cheese when you’re with the layering. You don’t have to use fettuccine past; you can use penne, spaghetti, ziti, etc.
You can use more cheese, as stated in the ingredients. Cheese lover, this is for you; you can use more than two types of cheese: mozzarella, parmesan, pecorino, and ricotta, combine meats, and add herbs.

Creamy Fettuccine With Shrimps
- 1 16 oz. packet Fettuccine pasta (or spaghetti; cooked)

- Sauce
- 1 pound ground beef (or Italian sausage)
- 1 32- ounce pasta sauce (or Mariana sauce)

- Salt and pepper to taste

Bring water into a boil in a big saucepan/pot over medium-high heat. Add pasta, season with salt and cook al-dente. Drain and set aside about 1/4 pasta water.
-
While pasta is cooking, in a pan, add ground beef and cook over medium-high heat, when the beef is almost done (making sure of stir to break the beef up), drain any fat if needed and seasoning with Italian seasoning, onion powder, garlic, diced onion and stir and continue to cook.
