Description

 Spaghetti pie, is like a layered lasagna dish, but instead, it's all in a pie layered with noodles, cheese, and meat. And guess what? Unlike lasagna, you just make the layers once! It's super easy to put together once you have all the three components of the layers all prepped. 


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 oz spaghetti, uncooked 
  • 1 egg
  • 6 Tbsp Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 1 cup low fat cottage cheese
  • 1 pound  sweet Italian turkey sausage
  • 1 and 1/2 cups store bought Marinara sauce 
  • 1/2 teaspoon basil (optional)
  • 1 cup shredded low fat mozzarella cheese, divided

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350. Lightly spray a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray. Set aside.
  2. Cook the spaghetti according to package directions. Drain and place in a large bowl. Toss pasta with, cottage cheese, egg, and 4 Tbsp Parmesan cheese. Press the spaghetti mixture on the bottom and up the sides of the pie plate.
  3. While the spaghetti is cooking brown Italian sausage in a non stick skillet. Drain any extra fat. Stir in  sauce (basil optional).
  4. Spread the sauce over the spaghetti. Sprinkle the top of the pie with  mozzarella and remaining 2 tablespoons of parmesan cheese. 
  5. Bake for 30 minutes or until heated through. Allow to stand for 10 minutes before serving. (It will be runny and fall apart if you serve it immediately)
  6. Slice into 6 equal pieces. Serving Size: 1 slice.
