Million Dollar Spaghetti

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 2

In a large skillet cook and crumble the ground beef and Italian sausage and season with salt and pepper. Remove most of the grease.

Step 3

Add onions and garlic and cook for a few minutes until onion is translucent.

Step 4

Add all but 1/2 cup of the marinara sauce (reserve 1/2 cup for the noodles) to the mixture and stir to combine. Set aside.

Step 5

Cook Spaghetti according to package instructions, just until “al dente”.

Step 6

Place hot spaghetti in a large mixing bowl with butter and 1/2 cup marinara sauce and toss to combine. Pour HALF of the pasta into a 9x13’’ pan.

Step 7

Combine cream cheese, sour cream and cottage cheese in a bowl and mix well. Smooth over noodles in the pan.

Step 8

Top with remaining noodles. Add meat mixture on top and smooth into an even layer. Top with mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese.

Step 9

Bake for 30-35 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Check it around 20 minutes and if the cheese is browning too quickly, place a piece of tinfoil over it.

Step 10

Wait about 10-15 minutes before cutting and serving. Enjoy!
