easy spaghetti bake ~ daughter's
My daughter brought me this recipe from her Home Economics class two years ago and I finally got around to making it...I wasn't sure about it, when I read the ingredients...had no spices at all, so I added my touch to it, also added more soup and pasta than the recipe called for...more cheese too...' Well,I must admit the recipe had me fooled, it was awesome. One of those recipe that will be even better the next day. I hope you try it sometime... Enjoy!

How To Make easy spaghetti bake ~ daughter's

Step 1Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Cook pasta and drain. While pasta is cooking, in a large skillet - cook ground beef, onions, garlic, spices and peppers until vegetables are tender and beef is no longer pink. Chopping the beef up some as it cooks. Drain and return back to pan.

Step 2Add the soups and water.Thoroughly blend. Simmer for about 5 minutes. I added some red pepper flakes as well.
-
Step 3Drain pasta and place in a large bowl. Stir in 3/4 cup cheese and then stir in the sauce.

Step 4Once mixed well, pour into a greased 4 quart casserole dish. I sprayed mine with non stick cooking spray. Sprinkle with remainder of cheese and place in oven.
-
Step 5Bake for 25 - 30 minutes or until bubbly and heated through. Remove from oven and let set for about 5 minutes, before serving. Enjoy! I was absolutely surprised at how good this was.
