Step 4 — Assemble the Casserole

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  3. Spread the cream cheese spaghetti evenly across the bottom.
  4. Spoon the meat sauce over the pasta layer.
  5. Sprinkle the top with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.

Step 5 — Bake to Perfection

  1. Place the casserole in the oven uncovered.
  2. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the cheese on top is golden, bubbly, and irresistible.
  3. Let it rest 5 minutes before cutting so the layers can settle.

🌿 Step 6 — Serve and Enjoy

Garnish with fresh parsley or basil for color and freshness.
Pair it with:

  • Garlic bread
  • A fresh salad
  • Roasted vegetables

Every bite will have creamy pasta, flavorful meat sauce, and gooey cheese — the perfect comfort trifecta.


🍽️ Tips for the Best Results

  • Use softened cream cheese — cold cream cheese won’t blend smoothly.
  • Add red pepper flakes for a gentle kick.
  • Substitute ground turkey or chicken for a lighter version.
  • Make ahead: Assemble the casserole and refrigerate up to 24 hours before baking.
  • Freezer-friendly: Cook, cool, portion, and freeze for 3 months.
