Spaghetti Pie

I went to a dinner party a few weeks ago where, for the first time I had Spaghetti Pie (compliments of Megan). Now, it sounds interesting, as Im sure you thought, and probably a little too casserole-down-home-cookin’, but don’t let your nose turn its way up when you haven’t yet tried such a spectacularly comforting, and tasty dish! Its super easy and a definite crowed pleaser (unless your crowed happens to be the judges panel of Top Chef...this may be a little too basic for them, but Im not above it). So the way we made it is a bit healthier than the original Im sure. So here it is folks:
1/2 lb.whole wheat spaghetti
2 eggs
2/3 c. grated cheese (Parmesan or I used Drunken Goat Cheese)
1 cup cottage cheese
1 lb. ground turkey or chicken
1/4 c. sliced onions
1 1/2 c. spaghetti sauce
1 (10 inch) pie pan

Combine cooked spaghetti with cheese and beaten eggs press into pie pan. Evenly spread cottage cheese over pasta.

Brown turkey or chicken with onion, stir in spaghetti sauce. Simmer 15 minutes. Pour meat mixture over pasta and cottage cheese. Cover with foil. Bake in a heated 350 degree oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Remove foil add a little more shredded cheese for garnish. Slice like a pie and serve!
