I would like to know why you call it Greek Spaghetti? Greek spaghetti is macaroni layered with shredded Mugithra cheese (you end up with three layers ). In a frying pan brown unsalted butter and pour over total spaghetti.

The recipe as written is too rich for my taste plus I don't like canned soup of any kind. Family didn't care for it.
