Spaghetti Pie

WE LOVE spaghetti....it's one of Tanner's favorite meals. On Pie Day (3.14) we had pie for dinner and dessert. I thought I would share my recipe with you.

SPAGHETTI PIE

8 oz Spaghetti - cooked and drained
1 tbsp butter
1/3 C Parmesan Cheese
2 well beaten eggs
1 1/2 C Cottage Cheese
1 lb Ground Beef
1/2 C chopped onions
1 8oz can diced tomatoes
1 5oz can tomato sauce
1 tsp Sugar
1 tsp Oregano
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1/2 C Mozzarella Cheese

Cook Spaghetti Noodle. While cooking, brown Ground Beef and onions together. Drain and rinse with hot water. Add tomatoes, sauce and all seasoning to mixture and let cook and thicken while you prepare the pie.
Mix noodles, butter, Parmesan cheese and eggs all together and press into a pie pan making a crust. {this makes 2 8" pies}.

Top each pie with cottage cheese. Top with spaghetti sauce and sprinkle top with Mozzarella Cheese.

Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.

Sloppy Joes

Tanner has decided that he LOVES Sloppy Joes.  He would have them every night and he always wants two! {maybe that is why he has grown another 1 1/2" in the last month}. This is my mom's recipe and it is our favorite recipe.
