Pork Cavatappi

This savory pasta is packed with ooey gooey cheese, a rich pork sauce, and satisfying cavatappi noodles. Its an easy inexpensive family friendly dish. 


Ingredients: 
16 ounces cavatappi noodles
8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
4 ounces shredded parmesan cheese 
2 tablespoons olive oil 
1 pound lean ground pork 
Lavender Salt
Freshly Ground Pepper
2 cups tomato sauce
1 tablespoon italian seasoning
6 springs fresh basil
2 cloves garlic, minced


Directions: 
In a pot of salted water, boil your pasta until slightly under done, about 6 minutes. In a large skillet over medium high heat, warm your oil. Add your pork and heat until browned and cooked through (about 8-10 minutes). Add your lavender salt, pepper, and garlic. Cook for an additional 30 seconds. Then add your sauce, italian seasoning, and basil. Stir until combined. Grease a 9x13 pan and pour your noodles into it. Then cover the noodles with the sauce and mix. Then cover with both the parmesan and mozzarella cheese. Bake at 400 degrees until the cheese on top is bubbly and golden, about 20 minutes. You can top with additional basil leaves if desired. 


This is a quick, no brainer meal that will leave everyone in your family happy and with a full tummy. Enjoy!
