My mom taught me how to make this with my leftover spaghetti. It is the best way to take a leftover and turn it into something even better!

Blue Ribbon Recipe

The whole crew loved this simple spaghetti pie. It's a great way to jazz up boring spaghetti leftovers. Putting a little garlic and oregano along the crust adds a punch of flavor. The fresh mozzarella on top really made this dish gooey and yummy. What a quick and easy family meal!

How To Make grandma lolo's spaghetti pie

Test Kitchen Tips
If using cold spaghetti, you may need to cook this for an additional 15 minutes (we did). Use a pie crust shield or aluminum foil around the crust if you see the crust is done before the biscuits inside the pan are golden brown.
  • Step 1
    Butter a deep dish glass pie dish. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Step 2
    Flatten each refrigerator biscuit.
  • Step 3
    Press the flattened biscuits into the bottom of the pie dish to form a crust. Pinch the crust up along the top edge to form a lip.
  • Step 4
    Sprinkle the edge of the crust with the garlic salt and oregano.
  • Step 5
    Dump in the leftover spaghetti.
  • Step 6
    Slice the mozzarella ball and cover the spaghetti completely with the cheese.
  • Step 7
    Sprinkle with more oregano.
  • Step 8
    Garnish with sliced tomato, if you like.
  • Step 9
    Place the pie dish on a baking sheet (to catch any overflowing cheese during baking) and bake approximately 30 minutes, or until the center of the bottom crust turns a light golden brown. (This is why a glass pie dish is recommended.)
