Cheesy Meat Spaghetti: Quick & Easy Family Favorite
Make Delicious Cheese Meat Spaghetti Like This! / How to Boil Spaghetti Noodles
Today, I prepared Cheese Meat Spaghetti for the kids’ meal. Cheese Meat Spaghetti is always delicious, no matter when you eat it! The cooking method is super simple, and if you follow my way, you can even halve the amount of dishes to wash. Haha
Ingredients- Spaghetti noodles, 1 serving
- Salt, 1 pinch (for pasta water)
- Meat spaghetti sauce, 1.5 servings
- Mozzarella cheese, 1 handful
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, bring a pot of generously salted water to a rolling boil. Add a good pinch of salt to the boiling water. This seasons the pasta and enhances the flavor of the pasta water. Now, add the spaghetti noodles for 1 serving and cook according to package directions, perhaps subtracting about 1 minute from the suggested time for a perfectly al dente texture. (I cooked mine for 8 minutes. If you prefer a chewier bite, 7 minutes is great too!).
Step 2
Once the spaghetti is cooked, drain it thoroughly in a colander. We’ll use it immediately to prevent it from becoming mushy. Transfer the perfectly cooked spaghetti noodles to your serving bowl.
Step 3
Now it’s time to add the rich meat spaghetti sauce. Pour 1.5 servings of the sauce generously over the noodles. You can adjust the amount of sauce to your preference.
Step 4
Using a spoon or fork, gently mix the sauce into the spaghetti noodles. Ensure the sauce coats every strand evenly. Be careful not to break the noodles while mixing, ensuring the sauce is well incorporated.
Step 5
Sprinkle a handful of mozzarella cheese over the warm noodles, like a dusting of snow. The more cheese you add, the more indulgent and visually appealing your dish will be.
Step 6
Cover the bowl with a microwave-safe lid or plastic wrap. Microwave for 2 minutes and 30 seconds. This will melt the cheese beautifully and allow the flavors to meld together. (Adjust the cooking time based on your microwave’s power.)
Step 7
Voilà! Your delicious Cheese Meat Spaghetti is ready. Give it a quick stir to mix in the melted cheese and enjoy while it’s hot! This dish is perfect as a delightful snack for kids or a satisfying meal for anyone.
