Are you balancing your nutrients? What would the proportion of fat/carbs/protein be for that spaghetti? Is there any fibre in there?
Healthy fats and fibre encourage satiety, meaning you won't get hungry as quickly. Ideally, you should try eating every 3 or 4 hours anyway. I always tell myself that if I've gone 4 hours without eating, it's been too long (not counting sleep time).
