Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 ounces spaghetti
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 yellow onion, finely chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 24 ounces marinara sauce
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
- 1 non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
Cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it into small pieces with a wooden spoon. Drain any excess fat.
Stir the marinara sauce into the cooked beef mixture. Add the Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Let the sauce simmer for 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and Parmesan cheese. Add the cooled spaghetti and toss until well coated.
Spread the spaghetti mixture evenly into the prepared pie dish, pressing it slightly to form a 'crust.'
Spread the ricotta cheese evenly over the spaghetti crust. Top with the meat sauce mixture, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Remove the spaghetti pie from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm. Enjoy!
