This Baked Spaghetti recipe is for mini loaves of creamy Alfredo baked spaghetti topped with meatballs and marinara sauce. It’s a Tucci Benucch copycat recipe!

There is a restaurant at the Mall of America called Tucci Benucch that I went to with my husband a few months ago. The food was delicious!

As usual, I had a hard time deciding but finally chose the Chicken Parmesan and Brian got Four Cheese Ravioli. One of the other items I wanted to order was their Famous Baked Spaghetti. I haven’t made it back to the restaurant to try it so I decided to make it at home.

Most baked spaghetti recipes that I’ve seen use a red sauce but the baked spaghetti from Tucci Benucch is made with a white sauce. The red sauce is added after baking, so that is how I made mine.

I decided to use my mini loaf pan instead of baking the spaghetti in a large pan.

How To Make Baked Spaghetti

First mix about 6 cups of cooked thin spaghetti with Alfredo sauce. I made my own sauce, but you can use the jarred sauce if you prefer.

After greasing the pan, fill each of the mini loaves with the pasta and press down on the top to pack in it, adding more as necessary. Sprinkle the tops with shredded mozzarella cheese.

Bake for about 25 minutes at 350 degrees.

While the spaghetti is baking, heat Italian meatballs and marinara sauce.

Put a little sauce in a bowl, add one of the baked spaghetti loaves, top with Italian meatballs and more marinara sauce.

Sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan and oregano. Serve with garlic, cheese bread, and a green salad.
