How to Make Million Dollar Spaghetti Casserole

Step 1: Prepare the Meat Sauce

1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Add the chopped onions and minced garlic, cooking until they’re soft and fragrant.
2. Drain any excess grease, then add marinara or spaghetti sauce to the skillet. Season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning (if using).
3. Let the sauce simmer on low heat for about 10–15 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.

Step 2: Make the Creamy Cheese Layer

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine cottage cheese or ricotta, cream cheese, and sour cream. Stir until smooth and well combined.
2. Fold in the shredded mozzarella cheese, ensuring everything is well mixed. Set aside.
