Bacon Cream Cheese Baked Spaghetti: Unabashedly rich, velvety, and cheesy comfort food!

Looking for a quick and easy weeknight dinner? This Bacon Cream Cheese Baked Spaghetti is surely simple enough for a weekday meal, but it is unquestionably not nutritious. Rather, it’s rich, cheesy, and comforting food that doesn’t feel the need to apologize for being decadent. Not to mention the bacon! This casserole is utterly delectable, simple, and rich.

While most casseroles opt to use cream of mushroom soup as a shortcut, this recipe uses cream of bacon soup. I’ll tell you this is amazing! Even make me feel like this is supposed to be the go-to casserole shortcut option instead.
