Baked Cream Cheese Spaghetti Casserole (keto-friendly)

Balancing Flavors: Cream cheese provides a rich base, but be sure to balance it with enough seasoning. Garlic, Italian herbs, and a touch of red pepper flakes can enhance the overall taste.
Avoid Overbaking: Keep an eye on the casserole in the oven to prevent overbaking, which can dry out the dish. The cheese should be melted and bubbly, with a light golden crust on top.
