Grandma’s Baked Spaghetti Recipe
To be exact this is a recipe from my husband’s grandma, so we call it “Grandma Redd’s Spaghetti” and it’s a delicious recipe for baked spaghetti. You’ll see below a note card of the recipe that my mother in law wrote for me and it’s nice and stained up because it’s a favorite and I’m excited to share it with you! You should see the worn out index card that my mother in law wrote me years back, nice and stained – that’s when you know it’s a good recipe. Am I right?
It’s a treasure to have hand me down recipes. Do you have any?
