Recreate the classic Spaghetti-O's at home with a flavorful tomato sauce, tender pasta, and melted cheese. A comforting, nostalgic dish made from scratch.
Ingredients Canned tomato sauce, tomato paste, pasta rings, cheese, onions, garlic, and seasoning create a delicious and homemade version of this beloved childhood favorite.
Cook pasta rings according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside to be combined with the tomato sauce later.
Sauté onions and garlic, then add tomato sauce and paste. Simmer with herbs like basil and oregano for a rich, flavorful sauce.
Add the cooked pasta rings to the tomato sauce, stirring gently to coat the pasta evenly with the sauce.
Stir in shredded cheese until melted and well incorporated, giving the sauce a creamy, cheesy texture that enhances the dish.
Allow the pasta and sauce to simmer together for a few minutes, letting the flavors meld and ensuring the pasta is well-coated and heated through.
Experiment with different cheeses or add cooked ground meat or vegetables to the sauce for added flavor and nutrition. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Serve hot in bowls. Enjoy as is, or with a side of garlic bread or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
