Spaghetti Pie

INGREDIENTS
  • 1 box of angel hair noodles (Use Dreamfields if you're a Trim Healthy Mama!)
  • 4 eggs, or 1 cup of egg whites
  • ½ cup Parmesan cheese
  • 3 cups of shredded Mozzarella cheese, divided- you may use light cheese
  • 1 Tbls. onion powder 
  • 1 Tbls. garlic powder
  • 1 Tbls. Greek or Italian seasoning blend.
  • One recipe of your favorite spaghetti sauce to pour over the top.
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Preheat oven to 350*
  2. Boil noodles according to package directions and drain.
  3. Whisk eggs, Parmesan, 2 cups of grated Mozzarella cheese, and all spices. together.  Add to noodles
  4. Pour into 9x13 casserole pan, and using a fork, press mixture down in the center, leaving a 1" unpressed border to hold the cheese.
  5. Spread cheese out over the center of your noodle pie.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and melted, and the noodles are 'set'.
  7. Serve with a big side salad, and hot sauce to top your spaghetti pie.
NOTES
You may halve recipe and press into a traditional pie plate for smaller families.
P.S. I've used Dreamfield's Pasta for over a year at least prior to starting Trim Healthy Mama, and we love it. It tastes no different than 'normal' pasta, and doesn't give me that 'carb crash' feeling after eating. It doesn't agree with everyone though. If you can't enjoy Dreamfields, please feel free to sub a spaghetti squash for the noodles in a half recipe.
