I thought I'd go ahead and get the February recipe up so you could find a spot to work it into your menu plans!


SPAGHETTI CASSEROLE

1 cup onion chopped
1 cup green pepper chopped
1 TBSP buter
28 oz can of tomatoes (undrained)
4 oz can of mushrooms (drained)
3.8 oz can sliced black olives (drained)
2 tsp dried oregano
1 lb ground beef (browned and drained)
12 oz spaghetti (cooked and drained
2 cup cheddar cheese shredded
10 3/4 oz can condensed cream of mushroom soup
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

In a large skillet saute onion and green pepper in butter until tender. Add tomatoes, mushrooms, olives and oregano. add ground beef and simmer uncovered for ten minutes. Place half the spaghetti in a greased 13 x 9 baking dish. Top with half of the mixture. Sprinkle with one cup of cheddar cheese. Repeat layers. Combine soup and water, stir until smooth. Pour over casserole. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 30-50 minutes or until heated through. Makes 12 servings.


This seems like a good dish for a Sunday or an evening meal during the holidays. Add a vegetable or salad and bread for a full meal!

I bet this is good with that cream of mushroom soup. Nice twist.

While spagetti always sounds good, no-one around here likes mushrooms or olives...

sounds interesting. I may have to try it. We don't do olives or mushrooms either so I will take them out.

One of my husband's employees made this for us more than once while I was going through radiation and chemo treatments and we liked it so much I asked for the recipe. It's really good!!

I'm not big on mushrooms either but I do like olives. I would think you could make it without them or substitute something else for them. :)

Okay...made it...I think next time I'd add another can of the soup...didn't quite cover it. Also in my mind...needed a little more salt.

Surprisingly good. Made a lot....took some following week for lunches. Was just as good warmed up.
