Ingredients:
1 (7 ounce) packages thin spaghetti
1 tablespoon butter
1 1/2 lbs ground beef
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
salt and pepper
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup sour cream
1/2 lb cottage cheese
1/3 cup scallions, chopped
1 tablespoon green peppers, minced
2 tablespoons melted butter
Directions:
Cook and drain the spaghetti.
Saute the ground beef in the butter till beef is brown.
Add the 2 cans of tomato sauce, salt, and pepper–set aside.
Combine all the ingredients for the filling.
In a shallow 2 quart casserole, spread one-half of the cooked spaghetti.
Cover with the cheese filling mixture.
Add remaining spaghetti and drizzle the 2 tablespoons melted butter over this.
Spread the tomato-meat sauce over this and chill (this can be put in the oven right away, but is a good prepare ahead dish).
Remove from the refrigerator 30 minute before baking.
Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or till hot and bubbly.
