Baked Spaghetti Casserole
What a knockout weeknight dinner this Baked Spaghetti Casserole is! There are some dishes which are just perfect as they are – like spaghetti bolognese right? But what happens if you take those dishes, add lots of extra cheese and bake them so they get a gorgeous crispy topping and deliciously cooked texture? Well if you make this recipe, you’ll find out!
I guess this is a cross between a spag bol and lasagne – tender pasta, browned beef cooked down with tomatoes and onions, creamy sauce and melting cheese over the top. For a more authentic Italian twist, you can swap out the cottage cheese for ricotta. It’s an amazing recipe and makes enough to satisfy a big and happy crowd!
