Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for greasing
Kosher salt
8 ounces spaghetti
2 large eggs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 pound ground turkey (or ground beef or chicken)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
2 cups Weelicious Tomato Sauce, recipe follows
1 cup ricotta cheese
1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
1 cup shredded mozzarella
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 onion, diced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 clove garlic, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
One 15-ounce can tomato sauce
1 teaspoon sugar, honey or agave nectar

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a deep-dish pie plate with olive oil.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the spaghetti according to the package directions until al dente. (This is a good time to make the tomato sauce.) Drain then transfer the spaghetti to a large bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and toss to coat. Set aside.
Whisk the eggs in a medium bowl, then whisk in 1/4 cup of the Parmesan cheese. Pour over the spaghetti and toss to coat. Transfer to the prepared pie plate and spread to make a "pie crust."
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey, 1/2 teaspoon salt, garlic powder and onion powder; cook, breaking up the turkey with a wooden spoon, until the turkey is cooked through, about 5 minutes.
Pour the tomato sauce over the turkey and stir to combine. Set aside.
Place the ricotta, Italian seasoning and the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan in a bowl and stir to combine. Spread over the pasta, then layer on the meat sauce and finally, sprinkle with the mozzarella.
Place the pie plate on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until the pasta is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling, about 30 minutes.
Let the spaghetti pie cool slightly, then cut into wedges and serve.
Heat the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
Add the garlic and Italian seasoning and continue to cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and sugar and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, 5 to 10 minutes.
