Three Cheese Spaghetti Bake

This is an extra-cheesy twist on regular spaghetti with red sauce. The combination of mozzarella, Parmesan, and Romano cheeses adds a wonderful flavor to the pasta and spaghetti sauce. For a different texture, substitute shells or another type of pasta for the spaghetti noodles.

Ingredients:

- 1 16-oz package spaghetti
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
- 3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Romano cheese
- 3 eggs, beaten
- 1 tablespoon olive or vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 28-oz jar spaghetti sauce

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x13 inch pan.

Cook spaghetti according to package directions, then drain. Add 1 cup mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, Romano cheese, beaten eggs, oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Press spaghetti mixture into prepared pan. Top with spaghetti sauce.

Cover and bake for 20 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup mozzarella cheese. Bake 10 minutes longer or until casserole is heated through and cheese is melted.
