Claire AndradeI’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Dump and bake recipes are my favorite ever. They are so easy. Literally anyone can do them.This one is similar to my meatball and rice casserole but I wanted to make it with pasta instead. I know it’s not technically “Spaghetti” but it’s close enough in taste that I’m just goin to go with it. An easy classic, made even easier (for real).
One Pot Dump and Bake Spaghetti and Meatballs
What you need
1 Package Frozen Meatballs
1 Box Whole Wheat Rotini
1 Large Jar Marinara Sauce
1/2 Cup Chicken Broth
Optional Seasonings: Minced Garlic, Crushed Red Pepper
1 Cup Shredded Mozzarella
Shredded Parmesan Cheese to top
What to do
Preheat oven to 425 and spray a glass 9×11 pan with Pam. Place all ingredients expect cheese into pan and combine. Cover with aluminum foil and cook for 20 minus and then take out, stir and top with cheese and recover. Bake for about another 20 minutes. That’s it guys. Doesn’t get much easier and is sure to be a crowd pleaser. Would be great with a salad as a side!
Don’t forget you can pin this image below to Pinterest for later!

Hello 🙂
Do you precook the pasta or meat, or does the pasta soften in the oven!? I plan on making this tomorrow night for guest 🙂
Hi! The meatballs are precooked so I do not cook them before, the pasta I also do not precook – a warning though, they will be more al dente with that method. So if you would prefer the noodle softer I would precook! If you did that you would t need the chicken broth.
