A warm, cheesy, and hearty spaghetti dish layered with a savory meat sauce, ricotta, and mozzarella, all baked to perfection.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound spaghetti
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 jar (24 ounces) spaghetti sauce
  • 1 can (15 ounces) ricotta cheese
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Cook the spaghetti according to the package directions until al dente, then drain.
  3. Brown the ground beef along with the chopped onion and minced garlic over medium heat until fully cooked. Drain excess fat.
  4. Stir in the spaghetti sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper into the skillet. Let it simmer for 5 minutes.
  5. Layer half of the cooked spaghetti in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, followed by half of the ricotta cheese, half of the meat sauce, and half of the mozzarella cheese. Repeat these layers.
  6. Top with grated Parmesan cheese.
  7. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
  8. Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving, then garnish with fresh basil.

Notes

Pairs wonderfully with a crisp salad and garlic bread. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
