Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Step 2

Cook the penne pasta according to the box directions. Then drain the pasta.

Step 3

Over medium-high heat, melt the butter in a saucepan. Then, add the onion and cook until the onions are clear in color. Add the garlic, Italian seasoning, and basil to the butter and stir.

Step 4

Add the baking mix and whisk constantly for 1 minute.

Step 5

Add the milk and vegetable stock to the pan and bring it to a boil. Add salt and pepper to taste, and remove from heat until the mixture thickens, about 2 minutes.

Step 6

Once cool, add the cheese and stir well. Let that sit for a minute so the cheese can melt into the mixture.

Step 7

As the cheese is melting, transfer the pasta into a greased casserole dish, approximately 9 X 13 inches (I used a 8 X 12 dish, and it was fine).

Step 8

Pour the tomato sauce over the pasta and stir into the pasta.

Step 9

Then add the cheese mixture to the dish and stir well so that the pasta is covered in the cheese mixture.

Step 10

Optional: sprinkle some extra cheese shreds on top of the casserole.

Step 11

Bake the casserole in the oven, uncovered, for 25 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Step 12

Serve and enjoy!
