Baked Cream Cheese Spaghetti Casserole Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain fat and stir in spaghetti sauce.
• Drain spaghetti and place in a bowl. Add cream cheese, garlic, Italian seasoning, and garlic salt. Stir until cream cheese is melted and spaghetti is thoroughly coated. Spread a small amount of meat sauce in the bottom of the prepared baking pan; put spaghetti on top and top with remaining meat sauce. Sprinkle Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Cook spaghetti according to package directions; drain. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook the beef, onion and garlic over medium heat until beef is no longer pink, 6-8 minutes, breaking up beef into crumbles; drain. Stir in the spaghetti sauce, salt and pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally., In a small bowl, mix cream cheese and sour cream until blended; stir in green onions. In a greased 11x7-in. baking dish, layer the spaghetti, cream cheese mixture and meat mixture. Top with shredded cheese., Bake, covered, at 350° for 25 minutes. Uncover; bake until cheese is bubbly, 5-10 minutes longer.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 F degrees.
• Place cooked spaghetti in a deep 1.5 quart oval baking dish or a glass 9x13" casserole.
• In a skillet, brown the ground beef until cooked through;drain fat and stir in spaghetti sauce.
• Heat over low heat, covered, until warmed through, stirring occasionally.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat.
• Add onions and peppers to the butter and saute until just lightly browned.
• Cut up cream cheese into small chunks and add to the onion mixture; stir until melted and well combined.
• Pour half of the meat sauce over the cooked spaghetti.
• Pour all of the cream cheese sauce over the first layer of meat sauce, using a spatula to spread evenly.
• Pour remaining meat sauce over the cream cheese layer, again using a spatula to spread evenly.
• Sprinkle some Parmesan cheese over the top to taste.
• Cover with foil and bake for about 25 minutes or warm and bubbly.
• Remove cover and bake 5 minutes more.
• This can be prepared ahead, refrigerated, and not baked until the following day, if desired (if you do, allow extra baking time).

Steps:

• The recipe calls for a 9x13 casserole, but I usually split it between two 8x8 pans (increasing the spaghetti, beef, sauce and mozarella slightly if needed) and freeze one of them for another time.
• Cook the spaghetti and drain, but don't rinse.
• Put it right back in the warm pot and add the cream cheese.
• Blend the cream cheese until melted with the spaghetti and then blend in the sour cream.
• Put spaghetti mixture into greased pan.
• Layer some of the mozarella, then the beef, then a little more mozarella.
• Spread the spaghetti sauce across and then put the rest of the mozarella on top.
• Bake at 350 (or maybe 375?) for 30- 35 minutes- until a knife comes out clean.
• Let it stand for 5 or 10 minutes.
