spaghetti. Add 1/2 cup parmesan cheese; stir to coat. Arrange spaghetti in
an even layer in pan. Spread ricotta cheese over spaghetti. Sprinkle with
1/4 cup parmesan cheese. Brown ground beef, drain; add pasta sauce and heat
until bubbly. Spoon over cheeses. Top with mozzarella cheese and remaining
parmesan cheese,

minutes or until cheese is lightly browned. Let stand 10 minutes before
serving.
