How to Make Baked Spaghetti Cheesy Spicy
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Cook spaghetti according to package directions; drain and set aside.
- While spaghetti cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add garlic and ground beef (or sausage); cook, breaking up the meat, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
- Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, oregano, basil, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- In a large bowl, combine ricotta cheese and Parmesan cheese.
- In a 9x13 inch baking dish, layer half of the spaghetti, half of the meat sauce, and half of the ricotta mixture.
- Repeat layers with remaining spaghetti, meat sauce, and ricotta mixture.
- Top with mozzarella cheese.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly, and cheese is melted and golden brown.
