Instructions: Brown ground beef in skillet; drain. Mix with onion and diced bacon and simmer until they are cooked. Add tomato sauce, water, mushrooms, salt and garlic salt. Simmer 1 hour over low heat.

Cook spaghetti according to package directions, drain and add to sauce.

Place half the sauce in a 13-by-9-by-2-inch casserole and cover with half the combined cheese. Add remaining sauce and top with remaining cheese.

Cover dish (with aluminum foil if necessary) and bake at 375 degrees 20 to 25 minutes.

Serves 8 to 10.

Serve warm with sourdough or garlic bread and a tossed green salad. This recipe has a wonderfully smoky flavor and tastes better after each warm-up.
