Spaghetti Casserole


A while back I tried out a new casserole on the family.  Mr. Devilish Dish exclaimed, "This tastes just like gourmet Spaghetti-os."  I'll take that as a compliment, I love Spaghetti-os.  There was a flavor he couldn't quite identify.  It's the addition of a can of tomato soup to the spaghetti sauce mixture.  It adds the slightest sweet flavor to this dish.  A perfect combination.  And a little bit more "gourmet" than Spaghetti-os. 
"like gourmet Spaghetti-os..."
