I had an aunt who used to make a baked spagetti. It was so good. A bit spicy. I doubt she used parmesan cheese as I'm talking 60+ years ago. It did have a tomato sauce base. Anyone know of a recipe?....thanks in advance

I was born in 1940 and I remember my mom grating parmesan cheese back when I was just a small kid. I used to love to climb on a chair and watch her do this, so parmesan has been around a long time in this country.
Here is kimbaby's baked spaghetti recipe. I suspect you could modify it to suit your tastes.
