Ingredients
  

  • 16 ounces Dry Spaghetti
  • 1 pound Ground Beef
  • 1 Onion chopped
  • 1 Green Pepper chopped
  • 1 clove Garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon Season Salt
  • 4 ounces Sliced Mushrooms (canned), drained
  • 1 14.5 ounce can Petite Diced Tomatoes undrained
  • 1 24 ounce jar Spaghetti Sauce (see notes)
  • 2 large Egg well beaten
  • 1/3 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • 2 cups Shredded Mozzarella Cheese divided (8 ounces)
  • 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese (4 ounces)
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease 13x9 baking dish with non-stick spray; set aside.
  • Cook and drain the spaghetti according to the package instructions for “al dente.” While the water is boiling for the spaghetti, prepare the sauce.
  • In a large skillet, cook the ground beef, onion, bell pepper and garlic until the beef is browned and the vegetables are softened, about 7 minutes.
  • Stir in mushrooms, tomatoes, spaghetti sauce and seasoning salt. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper as needed.
  • Add drained pasta, beaten eggs and parmesan cheese, stirring to combine.
  • Add half the spaghetti mixture to baking dish. Sprinkle with 1 cup shredded mozzarella. Top with remaining half of spaghetti, remaining cup of mozzarella and cheddar cheese.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until cheese is bubbly and beginning to brown.
  • Let rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing to serve.

Notes

  • You can substitute tomato sauce for the spaghetti sauce. Add 1 tablespoon of Italian seasoning or season to your taste.
