One time I went to this little hole in the wall mom and pop Italian restaurant. Had a baked Spaghetti, that was some sort of incredible! I asked what was in it and the waitress said kind of slyly. If I told you that I’d have to kill you. I laughed but was not really amused. I think she noticed this when I followed it with, no, really what is in this? She said it was a secret passed down from her grandpa. If you don’t read any more of this, then here this tip. Put about a pinch of Cinnamon into the sauce as it cooks. Your mind will be blown.
1 pound ground beef*
½ pound pork sausage*
medium green pepper
2 cups hot cooked spaghetti (about 4-5 ounces
uncooked) (Depending on your family size.
1 can (16 ounces) variety vegetables,
drained
1 can (10¾ ounces) condensed cream of
mushroom soup (or whatever soup you enjoy) Bean Bacon is good in the male instructions
1 can (water chestnuts or celery, drained
and sliced)
1 can (4½ ounces) mushroom stems and
pieces, drained
½ cup purified water
2 small onions, finely chopped (about 1 cup)
1 teaspoon salt
A pinch of Cinnamon
¾ cup shredded sharp cheese parmesan works great here (about 3
ounces)
Heat oven to 375°. Cook and stir ground beef and pork bulk
sausage until light brown, 17 to 23 minutes; drain.
Chop green pepper. (Save about a handful, you’ll need it late) Stir chopped green pepper and remaining ingredients except cheese into meat. Pour into ungreased 2-quart casserole, sprinkle with cheese. Bake uncovered 30 minutes.
Top with green pepper; bake 5 additional minutes.
Then let your family enjoy something made by the King of the House.
6 SERVINGS.
*1 pound ground beef can be substituted for the mixture
of ground beef and pork sausage, or any meat for that matter)
