William Pollock's Eat Happy: Spaghetti Bake

Notes

I've seen plenty of recipes for Spaghetti Bakes in various community cookbooks. Its a good way to bridge the gap between spaghetti and lasagna, especially if you have mozarella or other white cheese in danger of going south.

Apologies for the rough counts: the four measures counted should, with the onion and garlic, fill a target casserole pretty fully. Scale accordingly.

Ingredients

1	onion, sliced 1/2" thick
3-4 cloves	garlic, per serving
2 Tbl	olive oil
2 measures	spaghetti noodles
1 measure	spaghetti sauce
1/2-1 measure	mozarella cheese
1/2 -1 measure	mushrooms
	Parmesan or other dry salty cheese, to taste

Preparation

The assemblage is best made in a ceramic, high-heat container where one can best glaze the onion. Arrange whole onion slices and the garlic at the bottom of the casserole and cover with a few dashes olive oil. Glaze/char onion at high heat, 10-15 minutes with a turn midway through for the onions.

Remove casserole from heat and allow to cool sufficiently to allow layering of spaghetti, sauce, mushroom, and cheeses. Bake at 350F for 15-20 minutes or until bubbling.
