Cheesy Bison Burger Casserole

1 . Stage

Combine bread crumbs, onion, ginger, mustard, salt, and curry powder together in a bowl; add ground bison, oats, and eggs and mix well. Form bison mixture into 4 patties.

2 . Stage

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook patties until evenly browned, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Transfer burgers to a plate to cool completely.

3 . Stage

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; cook the rotini at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes; drain and transfer pasta to a 1 1/2-quart casserole dish.

4 . Stage

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

5 . Stage

Spread tomatoes and tomato sauce over pasta; sprinkle 1/2 the Cheddar cheese over tomatoes. Arrange burgers on top of tomatoes and sprinkle the remaining cheese over burgers and tomatoes.

6 . Stage

Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and tomato sauce is bubbling, about 30 minutes.
