Step by Step Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook spaghetti according to package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water and place into a bowl. Add a little oil to prevent sticking.
Step 2
In a large pot cook the onion in the olive oil until translucent. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until tender. Add the ground beef; cook and stir until the beef is evenly browned. Stir in the spaghetti sauce and the wine, and simmer to reduce the liquid (35-45 minutes). Add salt and pepper. Add the cooked spaghetti to the sauce mixture. Mix well.
Step 3
Spread the mixture into the prepared pan. Place slices of mozzarella cheese to cover completely. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until sauce is thickened, about 30-35 minutes. Cool for 15 minutes before cutting into portions.
