Favorite Spaghetti 
Have eaten this spaghetti since I was 10 years old (just about 50 years ago now). Really, really hard to find. I even e-mailed 'Kraft' which I never received a response. Friend told me to try 'Amazon'. I got so excited that I could get it through them. I just ordered a case of it and the Chicken Noodle which I have not seen in years either.
My Mom used to make this spaghetti soupy using tomato sauce instead of the paste along with some water. I still make it the same way. I don't add the butter since it is on the soupy side - but the tangy ingridients make the spaghetti and I will even add some hot sauce. Sometimes I add hambuger. My favorite is just soupy type spaghetti. My brother does not like Italian food - but he will eat this. Thank you for carrying it Amazon!
My Childhood Favorite......
I also had this when I was a kid. My mom made this and when I was about 11 I started making it for myself. I have always like this spaghetti dinner. My late husband was Italian and at first was skeptical of my spaghetti dinner, however he liked it after he tried it. I am sure he probably liked his mom's homemade sauce the best but he always commented how great my spaghetti dinner was. He never knew it was from a box dinner.
I did mine a little different that the box directions being we had a family of six to feed. I bought Kraft Spaghetti dinner for the sauce packet. I would cook a pound of angel hair spaghetti and then brown hamburger, beef stirfry strips or stew meat that I added chopped onions and half of the seasoning packet. Once it was cooked completely I would drain if needed and then added 3 small cans of tomato sauce (Hunt's) and one large can of diced tomatoes (drained) and the remainder of the seasoning packet. I would also add about a half of cup of parmesan cheese (Kraft's) while sauce was heating. Adding the tomatoes to the sauce made it a little thicker and chunkier and made the flavor packet not so strong. Anyone that tried my spaghetti like this had no idea that it was a boxed spaghetti dinner.
I have not made this in a very long time and this is making me miss it even more. I think there are people who do not like this sauce because alot of Italian sauces have sugar in them which make them a little sweeter than this Kraft Spaghetti sauce. However by adding the beef strips with onions and tomatoes it does tame the strong spices of using it alone in just tomato sauce. I also just use about a half a packet when I am using only tomato sauce. Of course however we make it we always sprinkle Kraft parmesan cheese on our dinner and have garlic bread. This is my kid's favorite dinner I have ever made for them.
I hope my kids can make it for their kids and so on one day. I am glad to find that I can buy it at Amazon.com. I will relay that on to my daughter that is in college. Although, she will probably want me to buy it and supply her with her weekly supply. Oh well, good memories are wonderful.
Enjoy......I hope you try the Kraft Spaghetti dinner my way mentioned above and like it. It gives a variety of ways to make this childhood favorite.
Spaghetti
We love this spaghetti. We used to have it when we were kids but it is not available in our super markets around here anymore.
This Stuff Is Great!
I ordered a case of Kraft Spaghetti Dinners when Amazon had them on sale, for fast easy dinners. I didn't expect boxed dinners to be so good...everyone loves this stuff, I've even fed it to guests. I guess I'll order more soon, as my stash is running out.
this is what i remember
i have had this memory of the smell and taste of the spaghetti i had as a kid. I made this added extra black pepper and WOW! it was the lost memory i had struggled to remember. My husband and I have decided that a case or two is needed for our food storage since I think its better that a jar.
