Cathy's Favorite Spaghetti Casserole

---

This one-dish spaghetti casserole has become a long-time tradition in my family. My kids have loved it for many years, and as adults, they still get excited when i'm they know i'm going to cook it. The spaghetti is cooked in the casserole mixture of ground beef or italian sausage, tomato sauces, spices and cheese.
