Layered Baked Spaghetti

Layered Baked SpaghettiLayered Baked Spaghetti with ground beef, Italian sausage, and cheddar cheese!

During the holiday season, I have several dinner parties. I make sure that I’m always ready to host, by having several freezer meals on hand. One of my favorite freezer meals that I love serving during the holidays, or any other gatherings  would have to be my Layered Baked Spaghetti!

Layered Baked Spaghetti

My recipe for baked spaghetti is quite easy. I use ground beef, Italian sausage, and lots of cheese. I layer all the ingredients in a 9×13 bake dish, then I either freeze it for later use, or bake it.

Freezing this easy baked spaghetti is simple. All you have to do is use a aluminum bake dish, layer the ingredients, cover with the aluminum bake dish lid, and label.

When you’re ready to cook the spaghetti, simply remove from the freezer, let thaw, uncover, and bake for 30-40 minutes.

You can freeze the spaghetti for up to 2 months! Cool right? Be sure to check out my Freezer Meal 101 page for more freezer meal tips!

  15. I am writing down the ingredients to shop tomorrow to make this. If I half all the ingredient will it still work in a 9×13 pan? However, I am thinking I will go ahead and make the serving for 12 because I have a feeling it will taste great!
