Baked Spaghetti

Today I am sharing one of my family's favorite meals.  It's so much better than just plain spaghetti.  The recipe makes a lot, it's inexpensive, but it tastes delicious.  It is a great one to freeze, bring to potlucks, or when you need to take a meal to someone.  We love it with thick pieces of garlic bread and a good salad.

Ingredients:
1 16. oz package of spaghetti
1 lb. ground beef
1 med. onion, finely chopped
1/2 of a large green pepper, finely chopped
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can condensed tomato soup
1 8 oz. can tomato sauce
1 c. water
2 Tbsp. brown sugar
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. dried basil
1 tsp. dried oregano
1/2 tsp. dried marjoram
1/2 tsp. dried rosemary
1/8 tsp. garlic salt
2 c. shredded mozzarella

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Break spaghetti in half and cook according to package directions.

Meanwhile, in a Dutch Oven, or large, deep skillet, cook beef, onion and pepper until meat is brown.  Drain.

Stir in the soups, tomato sauce, water, brown sugar and seasoning.  Mix well.

Drain the spaghetti and pour into meat sauce.  Add 1 c. cheese.

Transfer to a greased, 9x13" pan.  Cover at bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

Uncover, sprinkle with remaining cheese.  Bake 10-15 min. longer.

I hope everyone has a great weekend.
