Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 tablespoon butter, softened, for greasing

  • 1 (6 ounce) package spaghetti

  • ⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 2 large eggs, beaten

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • 1 pound lean ground beef

  • ½ cup chopped onion

  • ¼ cup chopped green bell pepper

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes

  • 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste

  • 1 teaspoon white sugar

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

  • 1 cup cottage cheese

  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 10-inch pie plate with 1 tablespoon butter.

  2. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain spaghetti through a colander and return to the pot.

  3. Stir Parmesan cheese, beaten eggs, and 2 tablespoons butter into hot spaghetti until well combined. Form spaghetti mixture into a crust in the prepared pie plate and set aside.

  4. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef, onion, bell pepper, and garlic in the hot skillet until beef is crumbly and browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain off fat and stir in undrained tomatoes, tomato paste, sugar, and oregano. Cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through.

  5. Spread cottage cheese over spaghetti crust, then pour in beef-tomato mixture.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the top of pie and continue baking until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes more.
