This Baked Spaghetti Casserole is a wonderful mixture of pasta, cheese, and an easy meat sauce. A couple of eggs get mixed in and they help the casserole hold it’s shape. Always a family favorite.

 
I love to serve this with a green salad with Creamy Italian Dressing and Pepperoncini Garlic Bread. A combination of Parmesan cheese, tons of mozzarella cheese, and cottage cheese makes this casserole so, so cheesy.
Spaghetti Casserole Recipe Tips:

Add at least a few teaspoons of salt to the pasta water. Otherwise your pasta will taste bland and boring.
Don’t be turned off by the cottage cheese. It gives a wonderful creaminess but you won’t be able to tell there is cottage cheese in it. If you really object to cottage cheese, you can use ricotta cheese instead. You can use Angel Hair pasta instead of spaghetti if you wish.
Depending on what else you are serving, you should get 8 to 12 servings.
This recipe makes a huge amount and leftovers reheat well. They will keep in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days.

 

This recipe freezes well so if you want you can divide it into 2 smaller portions in square baking dishes and freeze one.
