Servings: 6 Preparation Time: 15 minutes Cooking Time: 15 minutes

INGREDIENTS:

• 4 cups milk
• 1 (10.5 oz) can condensed cream of bacon soup
• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1/2 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 lb dry spaghetti
• 3 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese, grated and divided
• 1 cup bacon, cooked and crumbled
• Fresh chives, snipped, for garnish (optional)
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

PREPARATION:

Cooking Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F.
2. In a large pot, combine the milk, condensed cream of bacon soup, softened cream cheese, garlic powder, and onion powder. Bring the mixture to a boil.
3. Once it starts bubbling, break the spaghetti in half and add it to the pot. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the spaghetti for approximately 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. Stir in 2 cups of the grated mozzarella cheese and half of the crumbled bacon. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer it to a 9×13-inch baking dish.
5. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese and bacon on top. Bake until the cheese is fully melted and begins to turn a beautiful golden brown, which usually takes around 15 minutes.
6. Let the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving. If you like, garnish with fresh snipped chives. Enjoy!
