1 Start the Beef and Tomatoes
Prick tomatoes all over with a fork. If you receive one whole tomato instead, not to worry; simply core tomato, cut into 1/2" dice, and proceed with recipe instructions.
Evenly divide ground beef and tomatoes between provided trays and break up beef into bite-sized pieces. Spread into an even layer.Bake uncovered in hot oven, 12 minutes.Beef will finish cooking in a later step.Carefully remove from oven. Drain any excess liquid and break up beef mixture. Tray will be hot! Use a utensil. -
2 Add the Pasta
Evenly divide pasta, cream cheese, Parmesan, softened butter, garlic and parsley seasoning, and half the feta (reserve remaining for garnish) between both trays. Stir 1/4 tsp. salt, a pinch of pepper, and 1/4 cup water into each tray until combined. Cream cheese and butter will melt as meal bakes.
Cover with foil. -
3 Bake the Meal
Bake covered in hot oven until pasta is heated through and beef reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 10-15 minutes.
Carefully remove from oven. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to each tray and stir to combine.To serve, top pasta with remaining feta. Bon appétit!
