Spaghetti Pie

The picture is a picture of the spaghetti pie I made Monday night for supper. I found the recipe in the new cookbook my mom received last month. The cook book is called A Quilter's Christmas Cookbook.

6 oz pkg spaghetti, cooked and drained
2 Tbsp olive oil or butter
1 large egg
3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup ricotta cheese
1 cup spaghetti sauce
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
fresh basil

1. Toss hot spaghetti with olive oil or butter.
2. Mix together egg and 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese. Stir into spaghetti.
3. pour spaghetti mixture into a greased 10" pie pan. Form into a "crust".
4. Spread ricotta cheese over bottom of spaghetti crust. Add spaghetti sauce.
5. Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Top with mozzarella cheese. Bake another 5 minutes or until cheese melts.
6. Remove from oven. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese. Cool for 10 minutes before cutting into wedges.
7 Garnish with fresh basil and serve.
