LEFTOVER SPAGHETTI PIE
I enjoyed a whirlwind of Italian cooking in the past week or so - making sauce, spaghetti, pizza, and lasagna. I realized I had a lot of leftover ingredients from these meals, and decided to use them all in one final leftover recipe. This is based on a spaghetti pie I learned to make when I just got married. It is meatless, but you could certainly add some, or even use a meat sauce. It's extremely versatile, and lends itself well to whatever you need to use up in the fridge. In my case, I still had whole wheat thin spaghetti, ricotta, mozzarella, and olives and mushrooms from the pizza, so that's what I used.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a large pie plate (9-10") with non-stick cooking spray and place on a foil-lined baking sheet.
- In a large bowl, beat eggs, then add ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup parmesan, 1/2 cup mozzarella, and 1/2 cup marinara sauce. When well blended, stir in spaghetti until well coated with ricotta mixture.
- Transfer spaghetti mixture to the pie plate and spread evenly with spatula. Pour on 2-1/2 cups marinara, making sure to spread that evenly, as well. Top with 1/2 cup mozzarella and then sprinkle with 2 T. parmesan cheese. Bake in oven for approximately 25 minutes, until bubbly and cheese is melted and browned. (I do recommend letting it stand for about 10 minutes before slicing into pie wedges and serving.).
Tips:
- Use leftover spaghetti that is not too saucy. If your spaghetti is too saucy, drain it well before using.
- You can use any type of cheese that you like in this pie. Cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan are all good choices.
- If you don't have any eggs, you can use a flax egg instead. To make a flax egg, combine 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed with 3 tablespoons of water. Let it sit for 5 minutes, then use it in the recipe as directed.
- You can bake this pie in a 9-inch pie plate or a 10-inch springform pan.
- Serve this pie warm or at room temperature.

Leftover spaghetti pie is a delicious and easy way to use up leftover spaghetti. It's a great meal for busy weeknights or for potlucks and parties.
