spaghetti pie
(1 RATING)
My husband and 14 yr old son were virtually lost in the kitchen, and I had just come out of emergency surgery at the hospital. Several kind "Welcome to the Neighborhood" group members stopped and dropped off several casseroles, etc. A favorite of my hubby and son was a very large foil pan filled to the brim with a very similar recipe. When I finally recuperated and was able to go to the meetings, I profusely thanked everyone for their kindness. I never got to taste the original, but now I make my own in batches and freeze them "for similar emergencies!"
