Baked Spaghetti with Sausage and Meatballs
By Sue Lau | Palatable Pastime
Baked Spaghetti with Sausage and Meatballs is my recipe of the day with my baking group on Facebook called Baking Bloggers. Each month we vote on a topic and then all post together the same day. It is lots of fun. If you are a blogger who enjoys baking, consider baking along with us!
This month we are baking with herbs! I was going to make some herby Parker House rolls for you but there seems to be a shortage of yeast around. So maybe later.
In the meantime, I am craving comfort food, aren’t you? The stress seems to be wearing me down from our national emergency.
Pasta can be just the trick to lift the spirits and this one is dead easy to make.
I love a good baked spaghetti because it gets all cheesy-gooey and then I can’t help but sprinkle on a little more for good measure.
And a pinch of red pepper flakes because I am like that.
You can serve this with wine and a Caesar salad for that grown up taste.
But with kids, you might choose instead to have this with green beans and apple sauce, all very sensible for younger tastes.

Baked pasta is one of my go-to comfort foods too, Sue! Lovely dish!
Yummm I love baked pasta dishes like this! This looks wonderfully comforting.
This definitely comfort food. So warming and meaty. I love the touch of pepperoni.
Comfort food is perfect during this stressful time in our lives.
I have baked pasta earlier but never thought of baking spaghetti too. Would love to try this comfort food.
