Taste of Our Home Tuesday: Baked Cream Cheese Spaghetti Casserole

I had pinned this recipe on Pinterest a long time ago and had never made it.  Sunday we got together with our life group for a potluck lunch.  I was looking for something different to make on Saturday and ran across it again.  I thought we'd give it a try.  It was really quick and easy to throw together and it tasted delicious as well!  Justin said I could put it on the "keep" list.

12 oz spaghetti
1 (28 ounce) jars prepared spaghetti sauce
1 lb lean ground beef
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1 clove garlic, minced
8 ounces cream cheese
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated

Preheat oven to 350 F degrees.
In a skillet, brown the ground beef until cooked through; drain fat and stir in spaghetti sauce. Set aside.
Cook spaghetti according to directions on packet. Drain and place cooked spaghetti in bowl. Add cream cheese, Italian Seasoning and minced garlic. Stir until cream cheese is melted and the spaghetti is thoroughly coated.
Lightly grease a 9x13" pan. Spread a small amount of meat sauce in the bottom of the dish. Put spaghetti on top of sauce and top with remaining meat sauce. Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top.
Bake for 30 minutes, until bubbly.
