"Pasta is a comforting menu staple that can be confidently served but tricky to portion. Pots of leftover spaghetti aren't always as delicious the next day, but our ancestors had the right idea to make use of every noodle. Spaghetti pie cropped up in the United States in the early 1900s and was made simply with spaghetti, eggs, and cheese, but plenty of recipe variations have evolved since then."
"Spaghetti noodles can be mixed with meat, vegetables, spices, and cheese and placed into a prepared pan to bake until the exterior is golden and the mixture is bubbling. The creation is then removed from the oven and topped with extra cheese and a sprinkling of garden herbs for a final bake before it is left to rest and be sliced to serve."
Spaghetti pie transforms leftover spaghetti into a baked dish by combining noodles with eggs and cheese, often adding meat, vegetables, or spices. The mixture is placed in a prepared pan and baked until the exterior is golden and the filling bubbles, then topped with extra cheese and herbs for a final bake before resting and slicing. Variations include adding canned cream soups, creating individual portions in muffin tins, or using air fryers for extra crunch. Spaghetti pie can be adapted into breakfast versions with eggs, ham, and cheese and pairs well with a green salad or vegetables.
