SPAGHETTI PIE 
6 oz. spaghetti
2 tbsp. butter
1/3 c. Parmesan cheese
2 well beaten eggs
1 lb. ground beef or pork sausage
1/4 to 1/2 c. chopped onion (to your taste)
1/8 to 1/4 c. green pepper (to your taste)
1 (8 oz.) can (1 c.) tomatoes, cut up
1 (6 oz.) can tomato paste
1/2 c. Mozzarella cheese
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. oregano
1/2 tsp. garlic salt
1 c. cottage cheese
Salt

Cook and drain spaghetti (should have about 3 3/4 cups). Stir in butter, Parmesan cheese, and eggs. Make crust in 10 inch pie pan with this. (I use 10 x 10 x 2 inch casserole.)

In skillet, cook beef, onion, green pepper until tender and browned. Drain off fat; stir in undrained tomatoes, tomato paste, sugar, oregano, garlic salt and salt to taste. Heat thoroughly. Spread cottage cheese over crust. Fill with meat mixture. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Sprinkle with Mozzarella cheese and bake 5 minutes. (You can substitute macaroni and cheese dinner and omit spaghetti and Parmesan cheese.)
