[recipe] Spaghetti Chik Casserole

[Guest guest]

This is a dish everyone at my house loves and it is

so easy to throw together on a busy day. Serve with

some garlic bread and a vegetable side dish or salad.

 

Spaghetti Chik Casserole

 

8 oz. uncooked spaghetti

1 carton (8 oz.) ricotta cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, divided

2 Tbs grated Parmesan cheese

1/2 tsp Italian seasoning

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1 jar (26 oz.) meatless spaghetti sauce

1 can (14.5 oz.) Italian diced tomatoes, undrained

1 jar (4.5 oz.) sliced mushrooms, drained

4 breaded thawed chik patties (Quorn brand or MSF or Boca)

 

Cook spaghetti according to package directions.

Meanwhile in a bowl, combine the ricotta, 1/2 cup of

mozzarella cheese, Parmesan, Italian seasoning and

garlic powder; set aside. In another bowl, combine the

spaghetti sauce, tomatoes and mushrooms.

 

Drain spaghetti; add 2 cups spaghetti sauce mixture and

toss to coat. Transfer to a greased 13x9x2 inch baking dish;

top with cheese mixture. Arrange chik patties over the top;

drizzle with remaining spaghetti sauce mixture. Sprinkle with

the remaining mozzarella. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees

for 40 to 45 minutes or until bubbly.

Yield: 4 servings

That sounds excellent. I think it would also be great if you substituted some

extra-firm tofu for the ricotta. That's what I do with my stuffed shells and you

never notice the difference!

 

Excellent recipe.

Thanks for posting!
