What’s not to like about the sound of Pasghetti Pizza?
I let my imagination run wild with this one! Take the best bits of a pizza – the toppings and add to the best bits of a pasta – the sauces and combine with a base of cooked pasta. It’s genius! Well, my kids think so anyway! The pizza ‘base’ is made from cooked pasta, baked with a creamy egg and cheese sauce (a bit like the sauce you might make for a carbonara) until it becomes firm. The ‘topping’ is a classic tomato sauce, pepperoni and mozzarella, just like a regular pizza! It’s easy and delicious to make, a wildly popular weeknight dinner!
To make Spaghetti Pizza, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a rectangular baking dish
Break the pasta into small pieces, around 2 inches long and drop into a pan of boiling salted water. Cook until al dente, approximately 8-10 minutes
Drain the pasta and spread it around the bottom of the prepared baking dish
Add the milk, eggs, parsley, garlic salt, pepper and half of the mozzarella to a bowl and stir to combine.
Pour the mixture over the pasta and sprinkle the Parmesan over the top
Bake the pasta dish for 15 minutes
Remove the dish from the oven. Pour the spaghetti sauce over and scatter the pepperoni and the rest of the mozzarella over the top
Bake the pasta for 10 minutes, until the cheese is golden and bubbling
