Steps

1Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2Cook the pasta in boiling salted water until al dente (almost tender). Drain, rinse with cool water and set aside.
3In a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, cook ground beef, Italian sausage, onion, green pepper and garlic until vegetables are soft and meat is lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Drain liquid. Add all other ingredients to the pot (except pasta), then add 2 cups of water, cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
4Stir in Mostaccioli and transfer into an oven-safe, greased 9×13 pan. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
5Cover with foil and bake for 35 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with Mozzarella cheese and bake for 5 minutes more, or until cheese is lightly golden on top.
