  • 1 1/2 pounds (750 g) lean ground beef
  • 1 can (680 mL) tomato pasta sauce (any variety)
  • 1 pkg (250 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 2 cups shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 3/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 2 cups Original Bisquick™ mix

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 375°F. Spray rectangular baking dish, 13x9x2 inches, with cooking spray. Cook beef in 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until brown; drain. Stir in pasta sauce.
