Britbrit13 — Sat, 23 Aug 2014 02:41:35 GMT

Spaghetti Bake

1 lb. of Ground Beef
2 jars of Spaghetti Sauce
8 oz of Cream Cheese
1/4 cup of Sour Cream
1/2 lb. of Ricotta Cheese
Whole Stick of Butter
Spaghetti Noodles a small bag about 16 ounces
Bag of Sharp Cheddar Cheese

Preheat oven to 350º. Boil the noodles and while they are boiling mix up the cream cheese, sour cream and ricotta cheese!! Make sure that it is mixed up VERY well! Then cook the meat. Make sure its good and brown and drain it!
Then pour your spaghetti sauce over it! Take a few slices of your butter and put them in the bottom of your casserole dish, then layer HALF of the noodles in the bottom of the dish! Pour that nicely mixed up creamy mixture on top of the noodles. and SPREAD it all over! Then add the rest of your noodles and put a few slices of butter on top of those noodles. Now pour the red sauce and meat on top! Once again SPREAD. Now place that awesome casserole in your oven for 30 minutes! After those 30 minutes take the dish out and pour some cheddar cheese on the top and put it back in the oven for 15 minutes! Then your DONE!

Sounds like an easier to prepare lasagna since the layering would be easier......I will try it next week.......would it work with ""cut spaghetti"" pasta? I have several boxes of the cut pasta and never know which pasta recipe would be good with it.....thanks for the recipe.....

I envy people that can eat like this. I wouldn't fit through my front door with a diet like this.

I cook all the time but I am not understanding the layers explained. Can you explain from bottom to top on layers again. Thanks! It sounds yummy!

Mostly fat in this dish

Okay, so then don't make it. I don't think one would have to use the butter and there are low fat versions of cream cheese, ricotta, sour cream and shredded cheese. Someone at work brings a crock pot version of this recipe to luncheons and it is very popular. She calls it Crock Pot Lasagna.

FYI............personally I don't eat type of high fat food. Substitutes or not. It's not appealing.

If this recipe is too high in fat for some people's health (and I can see that it might be), then just don't make it. Problem solved.

I guess I don't see the need to make the OP feel bad about it.

No one would want to eat like this every day but an occasional serving sounds very yummy indeed.

Thank you for posting it, Brit.

ritas, spaget, oh my goodness, lol I did not see that . well we all make a few mistakes here and there when were writing

Take care, Britt

Wendydarling, I just love your name.. Yes that's a 9/13 inch pan..Let me know if you make it..I'm going to be adding some more tips that didn't get on there ) Take care, Brittany

Cham, Thank you so much for your interest, I hope you make it and let me know what you think??if you do, TY so much, Brittany

cjmcp

I start with 2,Classico roasted garlic pasta sauce 24 ounce jars and use what i need..I usually start with a 16 ounce bag of shredded cheese, and use what i need, sometimes i use all of it and sometimes not!! I also sometime's use a small onion and garlic!! I love changing things up i don't make all the time!! and most of the time i use the Italian blend cheese!! sometimes i add mushrooms sometimes i use olives!! Just make it your own!!

Take care, Britt

CountryMusic, I use a 9/13 in pan, Thank you so much for asking "))))) I thought id copy the message above..i love to add a salad and french bread...

Thank you so much, Brittany

ukcat, I am really tired so i hope i got this right )

Heat oven to 350. Boil the noodles,Drain mix cream cheese, sour cream and ricotta cheese, mix very well..

Brown the beef, drain. pour spaghetti sauce over the top of beef.

Use a few slices of butter on the bottom of your baking dish.

Layer 1/2 of the noodles on the bottom. Pour all of the cheese mixture on top of noodles.

Add the other 1/2 of the noodles and a few slices of butter on top.

Pour the sauce over the meat. Bake for 30 minutes. Top with the cheese and bake for 15 min.

Watch your dish, Not all ovens are the same.. Sometimes it takes 20 minutes to bake and 10 more minutes for the melted cheese!! sometimes I add 2 cups of cheese sometimes more...

Take care, Britt

Becki, TY so much for your kind words, I could not access my computer or i would have answered all of these questions sooner ) I don't always cook like this I'm a fruit and salad person but sometimes this is a wonderful change and really good comfort food!!!

My mother used to make this for us sometimes and now she is gone..and when I get to missing her I will make this!!! I just love to change it up..sometimes!!

Again Thank you for your kind words!! Have a wonderful Day!!

Take Care, Brittany

Thanks for posting this Brit! It sounds delicious! I have saved it and look forward to trying it!

I don't understand all the "not good for you "comments, It didn't say "Healthy" Spaghetti Bake. I wish people would just move on when they don't like a post instead of trying to hurt someone's feelings and telling others(all of us grown) what to do. That's why I only have 905 posts since 2005. Who needs the aggravation.
