Perhaps just like you I grew up enjoying an occasional can of this treat. My mom was a stay at home mom most of the time. So she would always cook, or she would let me cook. A can of Spaghettios was a treat; those were sometimes tucked into a thermos into my metal lunch box. I sometimes would get a can of these at the grocery store when we would go shopping.

As an adult, it is hard to go back and enjoy treats that we all enjoyed as a child. To be honest, when I have tried a can nowadays, I have a hard time enjoying these, but when I saw someone do a version of these on Youtube, I knew I should try to tackle these.

You can relive a childhood favorite when you make your own homemade Spaghettios with this copycat recipe.

The first challenge in this recipe is the pasta. The O’s, are challenging, but you can overcome these. I have two options the first is Anelli Sicilani 60 A, I purchased this pasta at Kroger. If you can’t find the pasta you can cook rigatoni, when the rigatoni is cooked you can slice is into small pieces, the slices of the rigatoni will make the “Os.”

The sauce is very easy to prepare; you are going to need 2 10 ounce cans of cream of tomato soup. Where the real flavor comes, is would be the meatballs. I made tiny little meatballs that were full of flavor. By using somewhat lean beef I did not drain the ground meat when I cooked it, so it gave the sauce lots of character.

    I think tomato soup would have too much salt ( I am on a low salt diet ) what can I substitute.. Maybe made marinara sauce?

    You could also use anelletti it’s a slightly smaller version of the ring soup pasta anelli = anelletti so some people might be confused if ordering online they are basically the same thing one is just slightly larger then the other but not enough to make a difference.

    Stephanie, I’m thinking that those little “salad macaroni” pieces would probably also do well in these homemade spaghetti-o’s. This was when they are done, you can just combine everything else and there you go! Just thinkin alout!
