Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook Pasta
Boil water in a large pot, add salt, and cook penne pasta until al dente, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Prepare the Meat Sauce
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add finely chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until softened, about 3 minutes.
Brown the Meat
Add ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Season with salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Add Tomato Sauce
Pour tomato sauce into the skillet with the meat. Stir well and simmer for 10 minutes.
Combine Pasta and Meat Sauce
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta with the meat sauce. Mix well to ensure the pasta is evenly coated.
Assemble the Casserole
Transfer the pasta and meat sauce mixture into a baking dish. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve
Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy hot.
