Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb uncooked spaghetti

1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup butter, cut into chunks

SPAGHETTI AND MEATBALL CASSEROLE



Spaghetti and Meatball Casserole image

I was going to make spaghetti pie but I didn't have any ricotta or cottage cheese so I tweeked it and came up with this. My son and BF loved it! The measurements are approximate since I don't really use measuring cups when I cook, I just kinda eye it up. I hope you like it as much as we did!

Time 1h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 ounces spaghetti
1 egg
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
25 pepperoni slices
20 precooked meatballs
1 (26 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce with meat
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried onion flakes
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375.
  • Cook spaghetti according to package directions; drain. Add egg and Parmesan cheese to spaghetti and stir to combine (I used my hands and it worked well).
  • Press spaghetti mixture into the bottom of a sprayed 8x8 glass baking dish. Cover spaghetti mixture with a layer of sliced pepperoni. Cover pepperoni with 1/2 c shredded Mozzarella cheese.
  • Cook precooked, frozen meatballs according to package directions (I just microwaved them). Cut them in half. Layer the meatball halves over the cheese mixture (number of meatballs is approximate. We used smaller meatballs so adjust to cover the whole casserole).
  • Combine spaghetti sauce, garlic powder and dehydrated onion flakes in a bowl. Spoon over meatball layer.
  • Sprinkle 1/2 c Mozzarella cheese over the spaghetti sauce mixture. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake approximately another 20 minutes or until bubbly.
  • Again, the measurements for this recipe are approximately. Please adjust to your own tastes. And I didn't have any on hand but I would've like to have added cooked green peppers to the sauce. So get creative! I'm anxious to hear what combinations everyone comes up with!
