Tips

  • This dish is good for up to 3 months when frozen.
  • Thaw the dish in the fridge the day before cooking for even cooking.
  • Do not mix the meat mixture and spaghetti in the baking dish; layer them and then top with cheese.
  • When freezing, write the dish name and cooking instructions on the foil for easy reference.
  • This recipe is ideal for postpartum meal prep.
  • The meat can be seasoned to preference.
  • The grease from the ground beef can be drained using paper towels if preferred, which is a controversial but effective method for some.
  • The cooking instructions for the frozen dish are to bake it at 3500F for 40 minutes after thawing, covered with foil, then saran wrap, then more foil for freezing and then just foil for baking and then uncovered for the last 10 minutes to brown the cheese if desired..
