Steps:
- 1. In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook pasta until slightly underdone (I cooked mine for 12 minutes when the box indicated 14 minutes). One pound of pasta should be cooked in 6 quarts of water, make sure you are using a big enough pot so the pasta doesn't stick together. When done, rinse in cold water and drain again. Toss pasta with 1 Tablespoon olive oil to coat. Set aside.
- 2. Heat remaining 1 Tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef. Cook, stirring occasionally until browned. Add garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and pepper. Cook 2 minutes more.
- 3. Add crushed tomatoes; simmer until thickened, about 20 minutes.
- 4. Toss pasta with Parmesan cheese. Butter a 9-inch spring-form pan. Tightly pack pasta into pan, standing each piece on end. Spread meat sauce on top of pasta.
- 5. Push the meat sauce into the pasta holes filling each one up. Stuffing the meat into the holes is a weirdly satisfying task. Enough said.
- 6. Place in a 400 degree oven for 15 minutes. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top and bake another 10-15 minutes until cheese is golden. Remove from oven and let stand for 15 minutes. Run a knife around the edge to loosen and then unmold.
- 7. Cut into wedges and serve with any remaining meat sauce you might have.

[email protected]This is a great recipe for a quick and easy weeknight meal. The pasta pie is hearty and filling, and it's a great way to use up leftover cooked pasta.

[email protected]I've always loved chicken pot pie, but this pasta pie is a great alternative. It's just as flavorful and hearty, but it's much easier to make. I'm definitely adding this to my regular dinner rotation.

[email protected]This is the best pasta pie I've ever had! The crust is crispy and buttery, the filling is flavorful and juicy, and the cheese is perfectly melted. I highly recommend this recipe.

[email protected]I'm not sure what went wrong, but my pasta pie was a disaster. The crust was undercooked and the filling was bland. I think I might have added too much salt.

[email protected]This pasta pie is a great way to use up leftover cooked pasta. I like to add a mixture of vegetables to the ground beef, such as chopped onion, celery, and carrot.

[email protected]This is one of my favorite comfort food dishes. It's so easy to make and it's always delicious. I like to use a combination of mozzarella and cheddar cheese, and I also like to add a little bit of chopped parsley to the top before baking.

[email protected]I've made this pasta pie a few times now and it's always a success. I've used both a homemade and a store-bought pie crust and they both work great. I also like to add a little bit of Italian seasoning to the ground beef.

[email protected]I made this for my family last weekend and they loved it! The only change I made was adding a little bit of garlic powder to the ground beef. I served it with a side of garlic bread and it was a delicious meal.

[email protected]I've been making this pasta pie for years and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I like to add a little bit of chopped onion and bell pepper to the ground beef, and I also like to use a combination of mozzarella and cheddar cheese.

[email protected]This pasta pie was a hit at my last potluck! I made it exactly as written and it was perfect. I used a 9-inch deep dish pie crust and it was plenty of pasta and filling. My favorite part was the crispy, buttery crust. Everyone asked for seconds!
