What's in this recipe?

Spaghetti (uncooked): You can't make this recipe without spaghetti. It makes the whole dish have that dominant and classic flavors.

Milk: Wanna make this recipe creamy and cheesy? You gotta need milk in your ingredients then!

Eggs: Spaghetti? With eggs? Yup. You need that to mix the ingredients and create a custard-like texture.

Cheddar cheese: If you are looking for that tangy taste with a sharp cheesy note, you need cheddar cheese.

Mozzarella cheese: Pizza or spaghetti, both have creamy, gooey, and stretchy cheese toppings right? Well, the same goes for this Pizza Spaghetti Bake!

Pasta sauce: If everything is just pasta and toppings, you'll have a failed dish at hand. Pasta sauce gives life to this recipe. The color and flavor all depend on your pasta sauce. You can use pizza sauce instead.

Black olives: The black olives add a salty and savory flavor.

Top Tips!

• To make this recipe even more convenient, try using pre-made pasta sauce instead of making your own. Go to your favorite grocery store, and you'll find loads of high-quality pasta sauces that can save you time and still provide great flavor.
• If you like your dishes on the saucier side, you gotta add an extra cup of pasta sauce to the recipe. With this added pasta sauce, the dish will be more moist and flavorful. You could use crushed tomatoes instead of pasta sauce for a more natural tomato flavor too.
• To add some extra flavor to the dish, you may add some Italian seasoning or red pepper flakes. Italian seasoning is a blend of herbs like oregano, basil, and thyme, which will give the dish a more authentic Italian flavor. Red pepper flakes will add a nice heat and spiciness to the dish.
• You can add all your favorite pizza toppings.
• This baked casserole is a quick and easy meal that can be made with leftover pasta. So, if you have leftover cooked pasta, don't let that go to waste.

Recipe Variations

• For a vegetarian version, add some sautéed mushrooms or bell peppers.
• To make this recipe dairy-free, use non-dairy milk and non-dairy cheese alternatives.
• To make the dish extra cheesy, add some parmesan cheese as well.
• Fresh herbs can add a lot of flavor and color to any dish, and this recipe is no exception. Consider topping the dish with some chopped fresh basil or parsley before serving for a fresh and vibrant finish.

Serving Suggestions

For a complete and satisfying meal, serve this dish alongside a crisp and refreshing green salad. The acidity and crunch of the salad will balance out the richness of the pasta and sauce.

If you're also looking to add some extra protein to the dish, consider topping it with some grilled chicken or shrimp. This will make it a more substantial meal and will also add some extra flavor and texture.
