Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound spaghetti noodles
  • 24 ounces garlic Alfredo sauce
  • 3 cups shredded mozzarella divided
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 24 ounces spaghetti sauce


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare a 9×13 baking dish with nonstick spray and set it aside.
  3. Cook the spaghetti noodles al dente according to the package instructions. Rinse them under cold water and drain thoroughly.
  4. In a large bowl, mix together the Alfredo sauce, 2 cups of shredded mozzarella, milk, dried oregano, and dried parsley until well combined. Add the drained spaghetti noodles and toss to coat completely. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish.

  7. Let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.
