1. 1

   In a skillet over medium-high heat, brown the lean ground beef with diced onions until the meat is mahogany-colored. Stir in minced garlic for 1 minute.

2. 2

   Pour in the marinara and oregano. Let it simmer for 5 minutes until thickened.

3. 3

   Cook spaghetti in salted water for 2 minutes less than the package instructions. Drain and toss immediately with melted butter to prevent sticking.

5. 5

   Spoon half of the meat sauce over the noodles, spreading it to the edges.

6. 6

   In a bowl, whip the softened cream cheese, sour cream, parmesan, and garlic powder until smooth. Spread this mixture over the sauce.

7. 7

   Layer the remaining spaghetti, then the remaining meat sauce.

8. 8

   Smother the top with shredded mozzarella cheese.

9. 9

   Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25–30 minutes.
