Notes

  1. Pasta should be just barely al dente to avoid mushiness.
  2. Provolone melts beautifully but mozzarella or pepper jack also work.
  3. If mixture looks too thick after cooking, stir in ¼–½ cup extra beef broth.
  4. For a browned cheesy top, transfer casserole to a baking dish and broil 2–3 minutes.
