Baked Spaghetti

Baked Spaghetti
1/2 package of spaghetti
1 pound ground beef
1/2 medium onion, chopped (I didn't use)
1 jar meatless spaghetti sauce (I used Barilla brand)
1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt  (I just used regular salt)
1 egg
2 tablespoons and 2 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 small container of small curd cottage cheese
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

  • Cook spaghetti according to package directions.
  • In large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain.  Stir in the spaghetti sauce and seasoned salt; set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk eggs, Parmesan cheese, and butter.  Drain spaghetti, add to egg mixture and toss to coat.
  • Place half of the spaghetti mixture in a greased 13x9 inch pan.  Top with half of the cottage cheese, meat sauce and mozzarella cheese.  Repeat layers.  Cover and bake at 375º for 30 minutes.  Uncover and bake 10 minutes longer at 350º (or until cheese is melted).
SURVEY SAYS:  It's a keeper!  I modified the ingredients from the orginal recipe quite a bit and changed the cooking time and temperature (modifications are above) and my family LOVED it!
