Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound ground beef
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoon oregano
10 slices bread cut in half
1 carton Philadelphia Cream Cheese Cooking Creme, Herb and Garlic
3 cups shredded cheese, mozzarella or whatever is on hand
1 jar spaghetti sauce
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. Line a 9 X 13 pan with parchment paper. Set aside. In a sauce pan, cook and stir the ground beef, onion & garlic powder, and oregano until beef is cooked. Remove from heat and set aside. Toast all of the bread in a 350 oven till dry but not burnt - a cookie sheet works well for this. Place 5 of the halved bread slices (10 halves total) on the bottom of the prepared 9 X 13 pan and cover with all of the cooking crème. Then top as follows: cooked ground beef, 1/3 of the cheese, all the spaghetti sauce a 1/3 more cheese then top with remaining 5 of the halved bread slices (10 halves total). Bake uncovered at 350 for 15 minutes, then sprinkle with the rest of the mozzarella and the Parmesan. Bake again for 15 to 20 minutes or till nice and brown. Let sit for 5 minutes before cutting.
