Linda's Baked Spaghetti image

When my kids were little I always made just "regular" spaghetti with noodles, jarred sauce and ground beef. This new recipe was prompted by my husband's love of Moe's spaghetti (his favorite pizza place in White Oak, Texas). He likes spaghetti that has come hot out of the oven with cheese bubbling on top! Try, I think you will...
