Every time that I make this cheesy dish, I get requests for the recipe. It puts a different spin on spaghetti and is great for any meal. The leftovers, if there are any, also freeze well for a quick dinner later in the week. —Ruth Koberna, Brecksville, Ohio

Very good although I made it without olives (don't care for them). Also made a side portion without meat for the vegetarian. Everyone enjoyed it.

This is one of the most delicious dinners we have had. It freezes well too. :)

I started making this recipe in 1994 when I first saw it in a Taste of Home magazine. I have found none to compare to this version of baked spaghetti. Everyone that tries it wants the recipe. This recipe is not a traditional tomato based type, but is rather creamy with enough oregano to give it that special ooomph! 18 years is a long time to make a recipe. It's definitely a keeper. This makes quite a bit. I fed my growing family of four way back in 1994 and had leftovers for several days. Now I make it in its full recipe, but freeze much of it so that I can have it later. I don't add the cheese to the top of the frozen ones until ready to bake. This recipes freezes beautifully.

I have made this a few times now. I have made a few adjustments, I add only 1 can of tomatoes, also I add garlic salt and Mrs Dash Spicey seasoning (2 tsps each) to the mixture when I add the oregano. I also add a little paprika to the cream if mushroom sauce before I spread the soup over the casserole. I feel this adds enough extra spice to give it alot of taste. Everyone in my home loves this dish.

This was the first recipe I ever tried from taste of home back in 1994. It has been a family favorite. I can"t begin to tell you the number of times I have made it or the number of recipes I have given out. The only thing I do differently is instead of diced tomatoes, I use crushed. My family does not like big chunks of tomatoes

I made this recipe when it was first published (1994?) and it has been a favorite since that time. On occasion I have used rotini instead of spaghetti, especially when taking for something special.

I make this every fall for my guys to take to hunting camp. It's their opening night tradition! Filling--and feeds lots. Leftovers are great--if there are any!

I made this recipe about two weeks ago and my husband raved about it. It makes quite a bit, so we refridged the remainder, reheated it next day at lunch and took the rest to our pastor and wife who were travelling. Everyone was delighted with it. Tonight, I am making it again for family that is coming to dinner.

I did do one extra item for this meal though. I added a CAN of Hunt's spaghetti sauce with the tomatoes and about a 1/4 of a teaspoon of thyme to boot. MMMMM good stuff, this.
