Ingredients
Method- 250 g Woolworths rigatoni
- 1 x 375 g jar tomato-and-basil pasta sauce
- 2 cups chicken stock

- 1 T Woolworths Italian seasoning
- 200 g grated Emmenthal and mature Cheddar cheese mix
- Parmesan, for serving

Ingredients1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Place the rigatoni, pasta sauce, chicken stock and garlic in a deep baking dish, making sure the pasta is submerged in the liquid.
2. Nestle the frikkadels into the sauce, drizzle with olive oil, season with the Italian seasoning and salt.
3. Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove the dish from the oven and set the oven to grill.
