    I followed the recipe, except I doubled the marinara because it all seemed dry when I mixed it together. I divided it into two small casserole dishes; one for us and one to share. I baked as directed, and although the taste was good, it was very dry. It seemed like there was too much spaghetti for the amount of cheese and sauce. It did not look moist like the picture.

    1. Yes, one up of sauce for two packages (6 oz) of spaghetti would be very dry, I think she meant to say one package 8 oz) of speghetti.

      1. Thanks! I made this again this week as written and then made a few updates. If you are not using thin spaghetti, I would definitely recommend either reducing the pasta amount OR increasing the sauce amount. Regular spaghetti is thicker and would definitely absorb more of the sauce and turn out too dry with only one cup of sauce. I really appreciate the feedback.
