A delightful twist on classic spaghetti, combining creamy cheese and tangy tomatoes for a comforting baked dish.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and a perfect golden crust.
Cook the spaghetti in a pot of boiling salted water until al dente, then drain.
Don't overcook the pasta as it will continue to cook in the oven.
In a mixing bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper.
Mix thoroughly to ensure the flavors are well combined.
Layer the cooked spaghetti in an ovenproof dish, then pour the sauce over it.
Ensure the sauce evenly coats the spaghetti for consistent flavor.
Top with shredded cheddar cheese.
Spread the cheese evenly for a uniform crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Check occasionally to prevent over-browning.
Serve hot and enjoy your creamy baked spaghetti.
Garnish with fresh basil or parsley for added freshness.
