I have made this for over 25 years and is exceptionally good and easy. It is delicious with a tossed salad and crusty garlic bread. It is not your traditional pasta and sauce, but an elegant one-dish meal. You can prepare it in the morning and it is all ready for the evening meal. Ingredients:
1 (7 ounce) package thin spaghetti |
1 tablespoon butter |
1 1/2 lbs ground beef |
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce |
salt and pepper |
8 ounces cream cheese, softened |
1/4 cup sour cream |
1/2 lb cottage cheese |
1/3 cup scallion, chopped |
1 tablespoon green pepper, minced |
2 tablespoons melted butter |
Directions:
1. Cook and drain the spaghetti.
2. Saute the ground beef in the butter till beef is brown.
3. Add the 2 cans of tomato sauce, salt, and pepper-set aside.
4. Combine all the ingredients for the filling.
5. In a shallow 2 quart casserole, spread one-half of the cooked spaghetti.
6. Cover with the cheese filling mixture.
7. Add remaining spaghetti and drizzle the 2 tablespoons melted butter over this.
8. Spread the tomato-meat sauce over this and chill (this can be put in the oven right away, but is a good prepare ahead dish).
9. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minute before baking.
10. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or till hot and bubbly.
