This is a dish intended for your leftover spaghetti. In my house there never seems to be enough left over to make this, so seeing as we love this dish a lot I make it with fresh spaghetti. Night #1 we are all dancing in our seat with pleasure as we eat dinner and lunch on day #2 is a treat beyond words.
Ingredients
- 1 (16 ounce) package thin spaghetti
- 4 cups prepared spaghetti sauce
- 1 cup small curd cottage cheese
- ½ cup fat-free sour cream
- 1 (12 ounce) package shredded mozzarella cheese
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Step 2
Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Step 3
Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Stir in spaghetti and return to a boil. Cook until pasta is tender but still slightly firm, about 10 minutes. Drain well.
Step 4
Transfer spaghetti to a large bowl and toss with spaghetti sauce until well combined.
Step 5
Mix cottage cheese and sour cream in a bowl.
Step 6
Spread half the spaghetti with sauce into the prepared baking dish.
Step 7
Spread the cottage cheese mixture evenly over the spaghetti.
Step 8
Place the remaining spaghetti and sauce in an even layer over the cottage cheese mixture; sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly and the cheese is browned, 30 to 40 minutes.
Cook?s Note
I like to take spicy Italian sausage and bake it in the oven while I prepare everything else. Then before I put the first layer of spaghetti in the baking dish, I put the sausage on the bottom of the pan and then do my layers, baking as usual.
