A Yummy New Recipe!!

Today, Adrianna and I didn't do anything too exciting. We went to Wal-mart this morning to get some groceries and ingredients for a new casserole recipe that I found on-line to use for the casserole exchange on Friday for my MOPS group. I decided to buy enough ingredients to try out the recipe tonight for our dinner. It proved to be very yummy and Adrianna loved it too.



Baked Spaghetti
Ingredients:
1 (16 ounce) package spaghetti
1 pound ground beef
1 medium onion chopped
1 (26 ounce) jar meatless spaghetti sauce
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
2 eggs
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
5 tablespoons butter, melted
2 cups small curd cottage cheese
4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions:
1. Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in spaghetti sauce and seasoned salt; set aside.

2. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, Parmesan cheese and butter. Drain spaghetti; add to egg mixture and toss to coat.

3. Place half of the spaghetti mixture in a greased 13 x 9 baking dish. Top with half of the cottage cheese, meat sauce and mozzarella cheese. Repeat layers. Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. Uncover, back 20-25 minutes longer or until cheese is melted.

This was very easy to make and is kind of like lasagna but uses spaghetti noodles instead and I thought it tasted better then just regular spaghetti too. I will be making it again Thursday night but not baking it for my MOPS casserole exchange on Friday morning.
