Baked Spaghetti

By Michael Hastings
JOURNAL FOOD EDITOR

As promised last week, here are two more requested recipes of dishes served at K&W Cafeteria.

6 ounces uncooked spaghetti
1 pound ground chuck
1 cup chopped onions
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
3/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, divided use
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1-1/4cups ketchup
1 tablespoon prepared mustard
3/4 cup beef stock
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1. Cook spaghetti according to package directions; drain and set aside.

2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cook ground chuck and onions in a large skillet, stirring until meat browns and crumbles; drain well.

3. Stir the salt, pepper, chili powder, 1/4 cup of the shredded Cheddar, the Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, and mustard into the meat mixture. Simmer 5 minutes. Stir in spaghetti and beef stock.

5. Spoon mixture into a baking dish. Top spaghetti with remaining 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar and the shredded mozzarella.

6. Bake 20 to 30 minutes, or until cheese begins to brown.

All I do is mix the sauce and noodles together, put into a dish and add a huge bag of cheese to the top. I bake it at 400 until the cheese starts to turn a little brown.

Anyone know a great recipe for Baked Spaghetti?? I LOVE K&W's.
