Casseroles to Save Cash, Part 3

Tonight I made my third casserole to help me save money. I'm not normally a big fan of spaghetti due to some burnout from childhood, but I know it's a great way to save money since pasta is cheap. I picked a Baked Spaghetti Casserole since it looked cheap and easy. Although the casserole is pretty much ready to eat before it even goes in the oven, it does kind of come together during the baking time. I definitely think that the cream soups also help to cut some of the normal acidity of the tomato sauce, which is one of the reasons I dislike traditional spaghetti. Oh, and I cheated and bought angel hair pasta instead of traditional spaghetti since I hate the thickness of spaghetti. This casserole came together for about $10, mainly because of the cost of the ground beef and the as-ever overpriced green pepper.
