Looking for a healthy weeknight supper option? So keep on looking. While this Bacon Cream Cheese Baked Spaghetti is simple enough for a hectic weekday, it is hardly a healthy meal. No, this is indulgent comfort food that is unabashedly creamy and cheesy. (There’s bacon, too!) It’s simple, rich, and absolutely delicious.While many casseroles utilize cream of mushroom soup as a shortcut, this one uses cream of bacon soup, and it makes me wonder whether it should have been the default casserole shortcut choice all along.

Simply combine that with milk, cream cheese, onion and garlic powder, and cook to a simmer before dropping the spaghetti directly into the liquid. The spaghetti cooks in what will become the sauce, saving you some time and ensuring that the pasta is tasty.As promised, there is also cheese. A big serving of mozzarella is added, which is the ideal melty but mild cheese to complement the rest of the rich tastes.

And we’re not done with the bacon yet! Stir half a cup of crispy, salty bacon into the pasta, transfer to a baking dish, top with extra bacon and mozzarella, and bake until hot and bubbling.When you serve this, dinner is usually utterly silent since everyone is too engrossed in the creamy, salty, cheesy flavor to talk. It’s unquestionably a crowd-pleaser, but it’s also quite easy to prepare.
