There is nothing like spaghetti and baked spaghetti topped with cheese is even better. It seems like it's moister and definitely lasts longer.

This is also a great way to feed several guests. It's easier to make the spaghetti stretch when prepared this way because it can be served in sections when it's in casserole form.

So lets get into it so I can show you how it's done!

Ingredients needed for the Baked Spaghetti:

• Ground beef
• Prego spaghetti sauce
• Cooked spaghetti noodles
• Shredded mild cheddar cheese
• Yellow onion
• Green bell pepper
• Minced garlic
• Seasoned salt
• Garlic salt
• Onion powder
• Garlic powder
• Black pepper

Steps to make the Baked Spaghetti:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large pan, add ground beef, bell pepper, onion, and garlic salt. Cook meat stirring occasionally until brown.

Once the meat is brown, drain the excess oil and return the pan to the stove. Add the spaghetti sauce, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

In a 3 qt. Pyrex dish, add the ground beef mixture, cooked noodles, and 2 cups of cheese, folding together. Cover the top of the mixture with 2 cups of shredded cheese. Cover and bake in your preheated oven for 20 minutes.

Even several days after, the casserole was still moist and absolutely excellent! The casserole is great for freezing as well!

Enjoy!
