24 oz jar spaghetti sauce

3 cups chicken broth

2 teaspoons garlic powder

Directions

Preheat oven to 425° F and grease a 9x13-inch pan.

Break the ground beef into small pieces, distribute half of them over the casserole.

Top with remaining pasta and ground beef.

In a large bowl mix together the spaghetti sauce, chicken broth, garlic powder and oregano. Pour over top of the casserole.

Tightly cover with aluminum foil and bake for 50 minutes. The pasta should be close to al dente and the meat should look cooked.

Sprinkle the mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses over the casserole and return to the oven uncovered. Bake 10-15 more minutes or until the sauce is bubbly and the cheese is melted and browned to your liking.

Let rest 10 minutes before serving.
