Baked Spaghetti

I made this dish last week, and forgot that I wanted to share the recipe with you!

Baked Spaghetti

1 16 oz pkg of spaghetti
1 lb of ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped (optional)
1 26 oz jar spaghetti sauce
1/2 tsp seasoned salt
2 eggs
1/3 c Parmesan cheese
5 tbsp melted butter
2 c small curd cottage cheese
4 c mozzarella cheese

Cook spaghetti as instructed on box.  Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook beef and onion (I used minced onions instead, didn't feel like cutting up an onion) over medium heat. Stir in the spaghetti sauce and seasoned salt.  In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, Parmesan cheese and butter.  Drain spaghetti and add to the egg mixture, toss to coat.  Place half of the spaghetti mixture in a greased 9x13 dish.  Top with 1/2 of the cottage cheese, meat sauce and mozzarella cheese.  Repeat layers.  Cover and bake at 350 for 40 minutes.  Uncover; bake 20-25 minutes longer, or until cheese is melted.

I forgot to cover mine, so it was fully baked after 40 minutes, so if you're in a hurry, you can do that.

I served with garlic bread.  For that, I bought a large loaf of Italian bread.  I cut it in half, spread butter onto both halves, sprinkled it with garlic powder and topped with mozzarella cheese.  I was in a hurry, so I just stuck in in the oven with the broiler on, and it got it nice and toasty :)
