Recipe: Spaghetti Pie (using Italian sausage)

Main Dishes - Pasta, Sauces
Hi Sue! I looked through the 3 Miriam B. Loo that I have - Meal-In-One Favorites, Fresh from the Garden and Family Favorites (the one you have too) but didn't see the recipe in any of them. I did find this recipe (and several other versions of it in an collection of old community cookbook recipes that I have - most of the recipes don't credit the original source so there may be a chance that her recipe is in there. If this recipe doesn't look like it, do you remember any other ingredients that might be a clue - ricotta, cottage cheese, sour cream, etc.? - Betsy

SPAGHETTI PIE

8 oz. spaghetti, uncooked
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp. butter
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 large egg, beaten
1 (15 1/2 oz.) jar thick spaghetti sauce, divided use
1/2 lb. sweet Italian sausage
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
1 small onion, chopped
1 (8 oz.) pkg. mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. oregano
1/8 tsp. garlic powder
Additional grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for serving)

Cook spaghetti according to package directions, drain.

Return spaghetti to pan. Add Parmesan, butter, salt and pepper. Toss to melt cheese and butter. When slightly cooled, added egg and toss to mix. Stir in 1/2 cup spaghetti sauce; mix well. Put in 9-inch pie plate, spread to make even layer on bottom and up the sides covering rim. Set aside.

Brown sausage in a skillet. Pour 1/4 cup water over sausage, bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 5 minutes. Uncover and cook until water is gone. Remove sausage from pan and set aside.
