Nutrition Facts :

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh vegetables, quality cheese, and flavorful sauce will make a big difference in the final dish.
  • Don't overcook the spaghetti. It should be al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked spaghetti will be mushy and ruin the texture of the dish.
  • Use a large baking dish to make sure the spaghetti pie is cooked evenly. A 9x13 inch baking dish is a good size.
  • Let the spaghetti pie cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help it to hold its shape.
  • Serve the spaghetti pie with a side of your favorite sauce. Marinara sauce, Alfredo sauce, or pesto all make great accompaniments.

Spaghetti pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. It is a versatile dish that can be customized to your liking. Try adding different vegetables, cheeses, or sauces to create your own unique spaghetti pie recipe.
