I really like casseroles with Italian flavors and this one looks very easy to make. What makes this even better is that this is a meatless main dish, and great for people who are trying to consume less meat and have healthy eating habits. Regarding the spaghetti sauce, I would add Italian seasoning to it, to give it more flavor. As a side dish to this casserole, I would serve spaghetti with marinara sauce.
