Directions
Winner’s Spaghetti Casserole, This fast, easy recipe is a real family pleaser! I have used this recipe for many years as my good old stand-by for potlucks and tailgate parties I have also baked this recipe in two smaller pans, keeping one for my family and bringing the other over to a new mother or neighbor as a welcome gift This is my version of one I found in a community cookbook called Enough to Feed an Army (NOTE: Updated the amount of the spaghetti, I also now use a smaller box of pasta in this, even though the original called for a 1 pound box), Received a similar recipe from a friend years ago that called for a package of Kraft Spaghetti with Meat Sauce, which is no longer available Happy to see this revised recipe using spaghetti sauce One thing my friend’s recipe added is french fried onions, which I think adds so much flavor and texture After baking for 25 minutes, add the french fried onions and bake for an additional 5 minutes This has been one of my family’s favorites for years
