  • Remove milk mixture from heat. Stir in feta cheese, half of Parmesan cheese and eggs.
  • Sprinkle half the bread crumbs into a 2 large professional-size baking pans coated with cooking spray.
  • Place half of the cooked spaghetti into the 2 pans, top with half th e beef mixture and then half of the cheese sauce. Repeat layers.
