Easy Spaghetti Pie Recipe

Baked spaghetti is a favorite dish for me to make for my boys. Not only is it delicious, it's one of those dishes that can be assembled in advance, popped into the fridge and baked when we're ready to eat. My recipe for Pizza Baked Spaghetti features a combination of flavors you may enjoy on a supreme pizza and is ideal when serving a larger group of people or, when you want extra so there's leftovers to enjoy. This spaghetti pie, makes a slightly smaller amount ideal for weekday dining.

How to Make the Best Spaghetti Pie Recipe

This baked spaghetti pie recipe is one that always brings the family to the table in a hurry. The family friendly Italian flavors and easy to find ingredients won't break the bank.

• Ingredients you'll need to make this recipe or easy Spaghetti Pie: 8 ounces of dry spaghetti, olive oil, ground beef, Italian sausage, onion, a jar of your favorite marinara sauce, tomato sauce, large eggs, butter, grated Parmesan cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, dried Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes and fresh parsley for garnishing.
• It's important not to overcook the spaghetti initially for the best end result. Keep in mind it will continue to cook in the oven and you don't want mushy pasta.
• The sauce can be prepared in advance and chilled for up to 2 days or frozen for up to 2 months.
• I use a cast iron skillet to make this pie. Should you choose to do so, it should be assembled in the skillet and baked, not chilled for the next day. You can use any oven safe skillet to make this spaghetti pie, it's just not ideal to store food in cast iron as it could cause the skillet to rust.
• I often make 1 pound of spaghetti using half for this spaghetti pie recipe then cool and freeze the remainder for another meal on a different day. Again, keep in mind it shouldn't be overcooked initially so it will maintain it's texture when reheated.
• Store leftover spaghetti pie in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the microwave.
