Baked Macaroni
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 F. Lightly coat a baking dish with cooking spray.
In a nonstick frying pan, cook ground beef and onion until the meat is browned and the
onion is translucent. Drain well.
Fill a large pot 3/4 full with water and bring to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al
dente (tender), 10 to 12 minutes, or according to the package directions. Drain the
pasta thoroughly.
Add the cooked pasta and spaghetti sauce to the meat and onions. Stir to mix evenly.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Bake until bubbly, about 25 to 35
minutes.
Divide the spaghetti among individual plates. Sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon
Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
