Baked Spaghetti Casserole, Soft Bread Machine Breadsticks, and an Announcement
Are you trying to put together a menu for Mother's Day, a graduation party, or Memorial Day? Here are a couple of ideas.
- Try this recipe for Baked Spaghetti with Cream Cheese with French Fried Onion Rings on top (the secret ingredient that makes this spaghetti memorable). You can make it ahead and serve it to a crowd. Here's what one reader recently wrote about it:
