Baked Spaghetti
|
¾ pound ground meat |
|
½ cup chopped onion |
|
1 large clove garlic, minced |
|
1 (14.5 ounce) can tomatoes |
|
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce |
|
1-tablespoon sugar |
|
½ tablespoon EACH Italian seasoning, oregano, basil, thyme |
|
4 ounces spaghetti noodles |
|
½ cup fresh sliced mushrooms |
|
1 cup grated mozzarella cheese |
|
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese |
Cook beef, onion, and garlic in skillet, stirring until no longer pink; drain and return to skillet. Stir in tomatoes (I puree them in the blender), tomato sauce, and all seasonings. Simmer 30 minutes and set aside.
Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain well and stir into sauce.
In an 8" round or square dish, put half the pasta mixture. Cover with sliced mushrooms and mozzarella cheese. Top with the remaining half and cover that with the grated parmesan cheese.
Bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before eating.
NOTE: I got this from a friend in Eustis and used to fix it for my children. I have added some additional spices, which we like in our spaghetti sauce, but that is the only change I made. This is half the recipe I was given and I bake it in an 8" wide round pottery vegetable bowl with a flat bottom that I bought at an art show in Mt. Dora. We will get two meals out of this, but if I made the entire recipe, I would do it in an 8 x 12 Pyrex dish.
