Baked Goat Cheese Pasta Recipes

GROUND TURKEY AND GOAT CHEESE PASTA BAKE

I created this recipe one night when trying to think of other ways to use up some goat cheese I had on hand, and didn't have any pasta sauce! It actually came out better than I expected. The goat cheese gives it a wonderful creamy texture and the tomato soup, rather than sauce, gives it a hint of sweetness.

Ground Turkey and Goat Cheese Pasta Bake image

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 9 to 10 minutes. Drain; return to the pot and set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir turkey with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain fat.
Combine browned turkey, cooked pasta, 1 can of tomato soup, diced tomatoes, and chopped green pepper in a bowl.
Place one layer of the pasta mixture in the bottom of a 9x13-inch pan. Spread 1/3 of the 2nd can of tomato soup over this layer; add 1/3 of the crumbled goat cheese, and 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese. Repeat with second and third layers of pasta, ensuring that the top layer is completely covered with mozzarella.
Bake in the preheated oven until heated through and cheese is melted and browned on top, 20 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

Cook the pasta according to package instructions. Drain.
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and add the onion, pepper, courgette, aubergine and tomatoes. Cook over a medium-high heat for 5-6 minutes until slightly softened and browned at the edges.
Preheat the oven to 180°C/Gas 4.
Mix the cooked and drained pasta with the softened vegetables and put in an oven-proof dish. Stir in the pasta sauce and crumble the goats' cheese over the top.
Bake in the oven for 20 minutes, covering with foil halfway through the cooking time if the top is browning too much. Sprinkle with torn basil before serving.
