Spaghetti Pie
Spaghetti Pie is quick, easy, and pleases everyone in my family. This recipe is one of my go-to meals when I do not know what to make or have limited time to get dinner on the table. It will solve all your dinner dilemmas! It is easy, quick, filling, and delicious.
Why I love spaghetti pie
I love this recipe because it can be made the night before. I often make it with leftovers from spaghetti dinner, as I’m cleaning up dinner I use the left over sauce and noodles to make this meal. I pop it in the fridge and Voila we have dinner for later in the week. My family rarely complains about having pasta twice in one wee, but if yours would you could also freeze this meal. Cover it tightly with plastic wrap, make sure it is cooled completely before placing in freezer. Spaghetti pie should be eaten with in 12 weeks of freezing, for best flavor.
The kiddos went back to school today after having 19 days off! I’d like to say I’m glad they are back to school (which I am), but now the rat race begins again. We enjoyed many family meals together over the break, not just dinner. We were able to gather together for breakfast, lunch, and dinner most days! Now, practice will be at night, games, and so on and so forth. This leaves family dinners few and far between. So I will run to my easy make-ahead and last-minute quick meals.

Brings back great memories of times spent with my aunt! Each time I stayed with her family I got to choose my favorite meal for 1 night, and it was ALWAYS “Baked Skettie”!
I’m really bad this aft. Have a long list of “to dos”, but started reading your blog about the frig and just kept going!! Making my printer work copying recipes – just need xtra time to make them all.
Blessings!!
Thats funny, by grandpa always called spaghetti “skets”. Thanks for stopping in and Happy Cooking!
Has anyone tried to make this with spaghetti squash??
Not that I know of, but if you try it I’d love to know how it turns out!
Hola, no hablo inglés, pero quisiera saber si la taza de medir es de 250 mililitros. Muchas gracias un saludo desde España 🙂
1 1/16 cup = 250 milliliters Hope this helps!
How do I know what 5 cups of cooked spaghetti is…I mean how do you measure spaghetti noodles? This sounds right up my alley, I would love to try it.
If you have a large measuring bowl I would use that to measure. It doesn’t have to be exact, as you can see in the picture. You want to make sure you have enough room for the sauce and cheese on the top of your pie 😉 I hope you enjoy!
I ate this at a friends house once and that it was scruptious! I am definately going to make this dish!
Oh wow, we did have spaghetti on the brain! I love and it’s so hard to fit into a diet! Bleh. Your’s looks awesome!!
Feeding family/teens and dieting is for the birds! Tonight I made an easy cassoulet though and they loved it…go figure?!
Yum! Somebody made this for me after I came home from the hospital with my first son. Brings back some fond memories 🙂
Some of my favorite recipes are those that someone brought me after babies. You’re so starving then, everything tastes amazing!!
