Easy Cheesy Baked Spaghetti

This Baked Spaghetti is a family favorite. Easy to put together and then throw it in the oven till it’s hot and bubbly! So good!

I’m always on the hunt for easy dinner ideas. I need something quick to put together because most nights there is someone that needs to be taken to sports, school or church activities. Evenings just seem to be the busiest part of the day for me so I try to have a plan and on extra busy nights an easy meal in the works.

This baked spaghetti is perfect for those busy nights. It’s pretty quick to put together and then in the oven it goes. It’s also a nice change from regular spaghetti. It has a little bit of a different taste and everyone loves it just as much, if not more.

This baked spaghetti is sorta like a spaghetti casserole and I’ve always been a fan of casseroles. 🙂 The egg helps bind the noodles so you can easily cut out even portions. Hope your enjoy it as much as our family does.
