Baked Spaghetti

This is a popular Southern dish that I had never made before.  SUPER GOOD.  We all loved it.  YUM!
Ingredients:
8 Ounces uncooked spaghetti noodles
1 lb ground beef
1 Jar spaghetti sauce
1/2 Cup diced onion
1/2 Cup diced pepper/peppers (I used green and red)
1 Tbsp butter
1/2 Pkg cream cheese
2 Tbsp's milk
Paremesean cheese
1 Small container French's fried onions

Directions:
*Cook the pasta.

*Cook the ground beef in a skillet on the stove.  Drain out any fat once cooked.

*Add the spaghetti sauce to the ground beef.  He it through.

*Put the peppers, onions, and butter into a glass baking dish and cover it.  Put it in the microwave and cook it for 3-4 minutes (weird, but it works).

*Take the pepper mixture out and add the milk and cream cheese to it.  Mix it all up.


*Spray down a square baking dish with cooking spray.

*Pre-heat oven to 350*F.

*Put a couple tablespoons of spaghetti/meat sauce onto the bottom of the glass dish.  Spread it around.


*Drain all of the pasta.

*Empty the pasta into the baking dish.


*Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the pasta.


*Pour the spaghetti sauce onto the top of the cream cheese mixture.

*Put some Parmesan cheese over top of the sauce mixture (use as much as you would like).


*Put the dish into the oven and bake for 23-25 minutes.

*Take the pasta dish out and pour the fried onions on top.

*Continue to bake for 3-5 minutes (careful not to burn them!)

Hope you like this dish!
