Baked Cream Cheese Spaghetti

Another recipe that my family loves. I didn't think it sounded appealing so I put off fixing this for a while but I gave in and now they request it.  We fix spaghetti several times a week sometimes so this is a nice little twist.




12 oz spaghetti
1 (28 ounce) jars prepared spaghetti sauce
1 lb lean ground beef

1 small can of mushrooms
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1 clove garlic, minced
8 ounces cream cheese

1 cup of cottage cheese
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated

Preheat oven to 350 F degrees.

In a skillet, brown the ground beef until cooked through; drain fat and stir in spaghetti sauce, add mushrooms.  Set aside.

Cook spaghetti according to directions on packet.  Drain spaghetti, while spaghetti is in the strainer, add the cream cheese, cottage cheese, Italian Seasoning and minced garlic to the pot.  Stir until cream cheese and cottage cheese is melted and then add the spaghetti and mix until it is thoroughly coated. 

Lightly grease a 9x13" pan.  Put spaghetti in the pan and top with meat sauce.  Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top.

Bake for 30 minutes, until bubbly.
