Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 12 ounces spaghetti
  • 24 ounces pasta sauce with meat
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Heat the oven to 350 degrees F and lightly grease a 9 by 13 inch glass baking dish.
  2. Cook the spaghetti in well-salted boiling water until just al dente, then drain.
  3. Return the hot spaghetti to the pot and stir in the softened cream cheese until the noodles are evenly coated and creamy.
Layering and Baking
  1. Spread half of the creamy spaghetti into the prepared baking dish.
  2. Spoon over half of the meat sauce, then sprinkle with 1 cup of the mozzarella.
  3. Repeat with the remaining spaghetti, remaining sauce, and remaining mozzarella.
  4. Bake uncovered for 30 to 35 minutes, until the casserole is hot and bubbly and the cheese is melted.
  5. Let it rest for 10 minutes before serving so the layers set up and slice more neatly.

Notes

Serve with a simple side salad and garlic bread. Leftovers can be kept in the refrigerator for up to four days or frozen in a freezer-safe container.
