There are so many amazing things about this baked spaghetti, but the best would probably have to be the melted cheese on top. I think that the dash of Worsteshire is really promising, too. It gives the casserole a bit of a tangy twist and I like that. You can use any kind of shredded cheese that you have on hand. I used Colby Jack and it turned out really wonderful. That’s the beauty of casseroles you can use what you got in the pantry 🙂
I think this recipe tastes amazing so whatever minor changes you made, I love them!

Quick Tip: For a little extra crisp, allow this casserole to cook under the broiler for around 2 minutes.
Saw you added Cream cheese but its not in the recipe?
Hi, Sandra! There isn’t any cream cheese in this recipe.
It says on page 1 “this baked spaghetti and cream cheese recipe”…..
Typo! Sorry 🙂
What do you mean, two shots of Worcestershire? Is that two shot glasses full?
It means shake the bottle until you are satisfied 🙂
Anything with cheese is not a budget dish. I can’t afford cheese.
So…just boil spaghetti noodles and serve with a can of tomatoe sauce. Pretty inexpensive. I had to live on $10 for 2 weeks before I got my first paycheck. My son and I survived on kool aid and noodles..
I love spaghetti and I can’t wait to make your recipe!
