Shopping List:
1 28oz can Tomato Sauce
1 28oz can chopped tomatoes
1 onion
1 bell pepper
4 cloves minced garlic
1 lb ground beef 80/20
1 lb mild italian sausage
1 tsp worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup dry red wine
italian seasoning
red pepper flakes
salt/pepper/garlic/onion powder
2 pinches of sugar
fresh basil
2 tbsps tomato paste
1 package spaghetti
2 tbsps butter
salt, pepper, garlic, onion powder
sugar as needed to balance acidity
basil
Shredded cheddar cheese (enough to top the pasta before it goes into the oven - 1-2 cups)
Cheese Layer:
1 cup shredded parmesan cheese
16 oz Mozzarella cheese (save some for the top)
1/2 cup sour cream
5.2 oz boursin garlic and herb cheese
fresh chopped parsley
salt, pepper, garlic, onion powder
sugar as needed to balance acidity
Directions:
Start by making your pasta sauce. Heat olive oil in a dutch oven or sauce pot and add onion and bell pepper over medium heat. Once the veggies are tender (after about 3-4 minutes) - add in your ground beef and italian sausage. Cook the meat until fully cooked and begin to season with all purpose seasoning (salt, pepper, garlic, onion powder) red pepper flakes, and italian seasoning. Next, add in garlic paste and tomato paste and mix to combine. Cook 1-2 minutes and then deglaze with red wine or chicken stock. Bring to a boil and then add in your tomato sauce and chopped or crushed tomatoes. Allow the sauce to come up to a simmer and cover with a lid (on low heat) and simmer for at least 30-45 minutes and up to 1-2 hours - stirring occasionally. Add fresh Basil leaves for added flavor. Add sugar as needed to balance the acidity (should only need a pinch or two)
In a separate mixing bowl, add your cheese layer ingredients and mix to combine. Season to taste and refrigerate until needed. Boil pasta to package instructions.
In a casserole dish, add a thin layer of meat sauce to the bottom and then add sauce to your spaghetti noodles to coat. Add a layer of sauced spaghetti and then your cheese layer - top with shredded cheese. Add another layer of spaghetti and top with a thin layer of meat sauce and shredded cheese. Bake on 375 for 30 minutes or until browned and bubbling.
Cheesy Baked Spaghetti: make ahead and freezer friendly! | The Recipe Rebel
PRINTABLE RECIPE & NUTRITION INFO:
Ingredients
1 lb Italian sausage (mild or spicy)
1 medium onion (diced)
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried parsley
½ teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
3 cups tomato sauce
798 ml diced tomatoes (28 ounces)
375 grams uncooked spaghetti (about ¾ pound)
3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese
Instructions
To make your sauce, start by crumbling Italian sausage in a large skillet. Add diced onions. Cook sausage and onion over medium heat, stirring often, until meat is browned and onions are softened.
Stir in garlic, oregano, parsley, basil, salt and pepper and cook 1 minute.
Stir in tomato sauce and diced tomatoes. Bring to a simmer and reduce heat to low. Let simmer while you cook your spaghetti.
*Preheat oven to 375 degrees F if baking right away.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add a couple teaspoons of salt. Cook spaghetti just to al dente (we don't want it too soft since we are going to be baking it yet).
Drain spaghetti and spread into a lightly greased 9x13 baking dish. Pour sauce over top and stir to combine.
Sprinkle with mozzarella and parmesan cheese and bake at 375 degrees F for 20-30 minutes, until bubbly and cheese is lightly browned. Serve.
*See post above for tips on refrigerating, freezing, and baking later.
