Tips For One Making Cheesy Spaghetti

  • Be sure not to overcook your spaghetti noodles. I always cook for one minute less than suggested to have a little bite to my noodles.
  • Use your favorite protein for a more hearty meal. I’ve used chopped rotisserie chicken, ground beef, Italian Sausage and even shrimp.
  • Saute any of your favorite vegetables to add as well. This is a versatile weeknight meal to get creative with!

    There is definately a great deal to learn about this subject.
    I really like all of the points you made.

    I made this and it was so good and flavorful! Our family of 3 ate the whole pot. My only complaint is that it took forever for my pasta to cook in the sauce. It certainly was not 7-8 minutes. More like 20 or longer. I will make again definitely but cook the pasta separately.
