Spaghetti Pie!

P1070022

Here is an easy dinner - delicious too!!

It involves cooking some spaghetti and mixing with a tomato sauce (I make my own with garlic, onion, tomatoes and basil, but use a jar if thats easier!).  You want the sauce to just coat the spaghetti, you don't want it swimming with sauce.

Spread half of the tomatoey spaghetti in the base of an oven proof dish. 

Mix together a tub of ricotta cheese, 2 beaten eggs, a little grated parmesan and a grated zucchini (or baby spinach), and whatever fresh herbs you like.

spread this over the spaghetti.  Top with the remaining tomatoey spaghetti, sprinkle over some grated cheese and backe in a moderate oven for 30-40 minutes!  Cut into pieces to serve. YUM!!

  1. Yes, yes! I have a recipe for something similar in a decades old Family Circle or Woman's Weekly cookbook (or one of those ones) It's called 'spaghetti CAKE and it uses the very same principles. I'll have to dig it out and compare, I know this would suit the boys really well. Thanks for the inspiration!
