How to Make Dreamy Spaghetti Casserole
- Brown 1 lb ground beef with 1 medium onion (chopped), 1 green bell pepper (chopped), and 2 cloves garlic (minced) in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
- Stir in 24 oz (2 jars) your favorite tomato sauce. Simmer for 10 minutes.
- In a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, spread half of 1 lb cooked spaghetti.
- In a medium bowl, combine 8 oz sour cream, 4 oz cream cheese (softened), and 15 oz cottage cheese. Mix until smooth.
- Spread the cheese mixture evenly over the spaghetti layer.
- Top with the remaining spaghetti.
- Drizzle 2 tablespoons melted butter over the top.
- Pour the meat sauce evenly over the casserole.
- Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. (This step is not included in the cook time.)
- Remove from the refrigerator at least 20 minutes before baking to allow it to come to room temperature.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 45 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
