Baked spaghetti extreme

[What you need]

8 ounces uncooked spaghetti
1 pound ground beef
1 large can spaghetti sauce
1 tablespoon butter
½ cup chopped green pepper (my husband hats green pepper so sadly i left it out)
⅓ cup chopped onions
8 ounces cream cheese
2 tablespoons milk Fresh grated Parmesan cheese
French-fried onions (small can)

And the [magic]

1. Cook spaghetti according to directions on the package. Cook to al dente, drain and set aside.
2. Brown ground beef. Drain excess grease.
Add spaghetti sauce to skillet and heat.
3. Combine onions, peppers and butter in small glass bowl. Cover and microwave 4 minutes on HIGH until soft.
4. Add cream cheese and milk to vegetables and stir well. (If cream cheese is not soft, nuke it for 20-30 seconds to make it easy to spread.)
5. Using a 12 x 8-inch baking dish (or something close)

assemble in the following order: thin layer of spaghetti sauce, cooked spaghetti, cream cheese/vegetable mixture, remaining spaghetti sauce, parmesan cheese (amount subject to your own taste)

6. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Top with french-fried onions(my fav, again the husbands not a huge fan so next time I will do 1/2 with and 1/2 without) and continue baking 5 more minutes.

*This is a perfect meal to prepare and freeze, leave off the french fried onions

Kissing my fingers, wah-laa!
