• Toss the spaghetti with 3 tablespoons oil; cool slightly, then add in eggs, 1-1/2 cups mozzeralla cheese, 1 cup Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper; using clean hands toss until thoroughly combined (you can use a spoon but hands are better!).
• Place the spaghetti into prepared baking dish, then press down slightly with hands.
• Scatter the cooked meatballs over the spaghetti.
• Top with spaghetti sauce over the top making certain to cover the pasta completely.
• Cover with foil and bake 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until hot and bubbly.

KITTENCAL'S MAKE-AHEAD MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Butter a 13 x 9-inch casserole dish.
• Cook potatoes in a large pot of boiling water with 1 tablespoon salt and 1 tablespoon white vinegar until just fork-tender (do not cook the potatoes until very soft just until a fork goes easily into the potatoes all the way)drain and place in a large bowl.
• Using an electric mixer beat the hot potatoes until just semi smooth and still a little chunky (I use my Kitchen Aid stand mixer for this).
• Add in cream cheese, sour cream, butter, onion powder, salt and black pepper; mix until combined and smooth.
• Spread the mixture into prepared baking dish.
• If desired you may sprinkle the top lightly with paprika, then allow to come down to room temperature.
• Cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
• When ready to bake set oven to 350 degrees F.
• Bake uncovered for about 25-30 minutes or until hot.
• If desired sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top and return to oven to melt (about 3 minutes).

KITTENCAL'S SCALLOPED POTATO AND GROUND BEEF CASSEROLE

Steps:

• In a skillet cook the ground beef with onion, bell pepper and chili flakes (if using) until no longer pink; drain fat over a colander.
• Return to pan and add in garlic, season salt and black pepper; cook stirring with a wooden spoon until the meat is lightly browned (I usually add in about 1-2 tablespoons bacon fat that I keep frozen in my freezer to the meat while browning for added flavor and it also helps to brown the meat) set aside.
• For the sauce; in a medium bowl mix together the undiluted soup with onion, milk, sour cream, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, seasoned salt and black pepper to taste; mix well to combine.
• In a greased 13 x 9-inch baking dish or a large oval casserole dish, alternately layer the sliced potatoes on bottom of the baking dish, then soup mixture (I like to sprinkle grated cheddar cheese on top of the soup mixture) then the ground beef mixture on top.
• Since this is a large casserole I strongly suggest to place the baking dish on a jelly-roll sheet in case of any spills.
• Bake covered with foil for about 1 hour at 350 degrees F.
• Uncover and continue baking for another 20-30 minutes or until the potatoes are tender (baking time will vary depending on the thickness of your sliced potatoes).
• Remove from oven then sprinkle with grated cheddar cheese; return to oven for 4-5 minutes or until the cheese has melted.
