Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2: Prepare the Casserole Dish
In a 9×13-inch baking dish, combine the uncooked penne pasta, marinara sauce, water, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until the pasta is evenly coated.
Step 3: Add Meatballs
Arrange the frozen meatballs over the pasta mixture, gently pressing them in so they’re partially submerged.
Step 4: Top with Cheese
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
Step 5: Cover and Bake
Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes.
Step 6: Uncover and Finish Baking
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden, and the pasta is tender.
Step 7: Serve
Let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh basil, if desired.
