❓WHAT IS SPAGHETTI PIE
Spaghetti pie is a unique dish since you use the pasta combined with eggs and cheese to make the crust. This is what makes it possible to cut the spaghetti into wedge slices. It’s such a great dish and we make it in a deep dish pie plate.
HOW TO FREEZE THIS DISH
If you plan to freeze this dish, we suggest assembling this in a foil pie pan. Then you can just remove from the freezer and pop into the oven. You will probably need to add about 40 minutes to the baking time.
