Ingredients | Baked Chicken Casserole

cooking spray

12 ounces spaghetti

4 eggs, beaten

⅔ cup Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons butter

1 cup cottage cheese, or more to taste

1 (28 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, or to taste

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, about 12 minutes; drain and transfer to a large bowl.

Mix eggs, Parmesan cheese, and butter with the spaghetti to coat pasta completely; spread into the prepared baking dish. Spread cottage cheese over the spaghetti to cover completely. Spread spaghetti sauce over the cottage cheese; top with a layer of mozzarella cheese.

Bake until hot in the center, about 30 minutes.

Add cooked meat with the spaghetti, eggs, and Parmesan cheese for more protein.
