Preparation

Step 1

Cook spaghetti noodles according to package directions.
Drain noodles very well.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F)

Spray 9x13 baking dish with nonstick spray.

In a large bowl, combine alfredo sauce, mozzarella, milk, oregano and parsley.
Stir well to combine.
Add cooked and drained spaghetti noodles and toss to coat them completely.


Place entire mixture into baking dish

Cover with aluminum foil and bake for about 30 minutes.

While it cooks, start browning your ground beef in a medium sauce pan.
Once beef is brown and crumbled, drain well to remove excess grease.
Over low heat add spaghetti sauce and mix. Put cover over sauce pan and allow the mixture to keep warm until pasta is ready.

After pasta is finished cooking, remove foil and allow to cool for 8-10 minutes.

Unless you are completely impatient like me.
Then you just cut out a slice and pour spaghetti sauce mixture on top, sprinkle with a bit of Parmesan cheese, if you like, and then dig in.

I will warn you, if you don't allow the mixture to cool a bit before slicing, it can get just a bit runny on you (see below picture) but the taste is still fantastic!

Cook's Notes: If you like a lot of red sauce, you may want to purchase two jars.
