DEEP DISH SPAGHETTI PIE
This recipe turned out to be such a fluke! It all started with leftover spaghetti! So I searched for spaghetti pie recipes and got ideas. I knew that I had probably more spaghetti, so what started out at a 8" pie turned into a deep dish pizza. Instead of going to the store for more ingredients I cleaned out my fridge and freezer. I had 3 frozen, seasoned hamburger patties...3 different types of cheese, mushrooms and some marinara sauce. Once you have the ingredients on hand, everything snaps into order very quickly! Ideas for options are below

Steps:
- Note: I used preseasoned hamburger patties I had in the freezer (I use Great Canadian Steak Spice - #62779) and I usually have 4 bags of Marinara Sauce from Cooking Light - #260197. Given that I used these two ingredients, my pizza pie was well seasoned, so the only spice I added was Italian Seasoning. If you are using regular ground beef, consider seasoning it with more garlic, salt and pepper. If using tomato sauce, add more seasoning such as Oregano, Basil and Italian Seasoning, salt, pepper and a little bit of sugar. I used a mix blend of Mozarella, Boccocconi Cheese and Gruyere cheese. The vegetables could be changed. Try adding red/green peppers or spinach for a different taste.
- Directions:.
- Combine the spaghetti, beaten egg and parmasan cheese. Mix well. Using a deep dish pizza pan, spread the spaghetti strands around the pan.
- Spread the cottage cheese over the spaghetti layer.
- In a large skillet sprayed with cooking oil, saute onion, mushrooms, garlic for about 4 minutes. Add the beef and cook until meat is brown and onion are tender. Drain off any fat and add Marinara Sauce or tomato sauce. Combine until well blended. Pour the beef mixture over the cottage cheese layer, spreading over to the sides.
- Grate the cheese and spread over the beef layer. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
- Preheat the oven to 350.
- Cook the pizza pie for 30 minutes or until the cheese is melted and slightly browned on top. Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes.
