Twice Baked Spaghetti
This is such a perfect rainy day kind of dinner. Something warm and cheesy and baked full of flavor!
Equipment
- 1 saute pan
- Casserole dish
- 1 Saucepan
Ingredients
- 1 lb Spaghetti noodles (or Spaghetti squash or zucchini noodles for a low carb option)
- 1 jar Favorite Pasta Sauce
- 1 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup mozzarella or jack if desired
- 1 cup mushrooms- sliced
- 1 head garlic- minced (or use what amount you prefer)
- 1 onion- chopped
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 1/4-1/2 cup Olive oil
- Italian seasoning to taste
Instructions
Cook your pasta in water as usual. At the same time, sauté the mushrooms, garlic and onions in a pan with a bit of olive oil. In a separate sauce pan- warm up the pasta sauce. Once the sauce is warm- add the mushrooms, onions and garlic to the sauce and set aside.
Once the pasta is cooked, drain the water and put the pasta into the sauce mixture and saut'e for about 10 minutes. Then pour it all into the casserole dish. Drizzle olive oil over the pasta and then pour the sauce over the pasta and mix well. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese or mozzarella with a bit of Italian seasoning on top ( to your preference).
Bake for 20 minutes or until cheese is browned. Add pepper (and salt) to taste if preferred. Serve and Enjoy!
Delicious
It is seriously DELICIOUS folks. The pasta cooked in with the sauce perfectly and as you can see the cheese melted beyond. As I mentioned, we do a zucchini noodle vs a traditional pasta noodle & we add fresh pepper to ours since we like a bit more flavor and zip but you don’t have to. And you can always substitute your favorite cheese, vegan cheese or leave off all together if you prefer. And add a dot of butter on the top after it bakes for an extra oomph.
