Faceless Frenzy: Skillet Spaghetti Supper

I am part of the AllRecipes AllStar program and one of our monthly challenges is to prepare and photograph a set number of "faceless" recipes from the website, meaning any that don't have a photograph associated with them. I dug through TONS of possibilities and decided this one looked like something my family would most likely enjoy and I could prepare it quickly for an easy weeknight meal! I did make several changes to the original recipe, reflected below.

It turned out really good! It was a quick and easy spaghetti recipe, easily tweaked to your personal flavor preferences depending on what seasonings you choose to use. It was super quick and easy and I would definitely add this in to the weeknight rotation. Would be great with a caesar salad or steamed green beans and some garlic bread!
