Cheesy Spaghetti Casserole

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This was a good casserole. It was creamier than I expected, and not as cheesy as I had hoped, considering how much cheese is in it. I had it sit in the fridge overnight.
    I think next time I would add more spices to sauce (I just used plain tomato sauce) and use more garlic. used 3 cloves, but found it was still not enough.
    The servings are HUGE, and I made it with a green salad. We had lots of leftovers for lunches.

    Cheesy Spaghetti Casserole, This casserole is so yummy, with the addition of all that cheese how could you go wrong!(note: plan ahead, this casserole needs to sit in the fridge for a couple of hours, or overnight), This was a good casserole It was creamier than I expected, and not as cheesy as I had hoped, considering how much cheese is in it I had it sit in the fridge overnight I think next time I would add more spices to sauce (I just used plain tomato sauce) and use more garlic used 3 cloves, but found it was still not enough The servings are HUGE, and I made it with a green salad We had lots of leftovers for lunches , I made a double quantity of this for my parents: by the time I’d added a few ingredients, this made a goodly quantity of meals to put in their freezer! Naturally, I sampled it before it was divided into meal-size containers for the freezer Yummy! Loved the different cheeses: used all low-fat cheeses (except for the Parmesan and mozzarella) and low fat sour cream because Ive found there’s no discernible loss of flavour used two red peppers and about three cups of mushrooms And, of course, used the (optional!) garlic: 6 cloves I also halved the quantity of melted butter, again in an effort to lower the fat content And I added a teaspoon of a blend of Greek herbs and spices This is a very yummy, easy-to-make recipe, ideal for freezing Thank you, KITTENCAL, for sharing another fabulously flavoursome recipe!
