Give Me Some Ground Beef And I’ll Give You This Amazing Spaghetti!

5 best ground beef recipes spaghetti casserole

I love a good spaghetti dish.  Usually spaghetti is just used as a side and never incorporated in the dish as a casserole.  I know, it is kind of tough to serve and difficult to work with, but do not let that get you down.  I absolutely love this recipe because it makes it easy.  Just toss spaghetti in a casserole dish with loads of ricotta (and any other cheese you would like to add!), and then pour a pot full of meat sauce over it.

I am telling you, this is so simple and delicious! Layer some extra cheese over the top and pop it in the oven to melt and you will have yourself an amazing dish! That’s my type of pasta! Tastes like a million bucks? Yes, please!
