Spaghetti Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients

6 oz. spaghetti
2 well beaten eggs
1 lb. ground beef or bulk pork sausage
1/2 c. chopped onion
1/4 c. chopped green pepper
1 (7 1/2 oz.) can tomatoes, cut up (1 c.)
1 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
1/2 c. shredded Mozzarella cheese (2 oz.)
2 Tbsp. margarine or butter
1/3 c. Parmesan cheese
1 tsp. sugar
1/4 tsp. garlic salt
1 tsp. dried oregano
1 (6 oz.) can tomato paste
1 c. cream-style cottage cheese, drained

Preparation

Cook the spaghetti according to package directions; drain. (You should have about 3 1/4 cups cooked spaghetti.) Stir margarine or butter into hot spaghetti. Stir in eggs and Parmesan cheese.
Press spaghetti mixture into a buttered 10-inch microwave-safe pie plate, forming a crust.
In a 1 1/2-quart microwave-safe casserole, crumble beef or pork sausage. Add onion and green pepper. Cook, covered, at 100\u00b0 power (High) for 4 to 6 minutes or until vegetables are tender and meat is no longer pink, stirring once.
Drain off fat.
Stir in undrained tomatoes, tomato paste, flour, sugar, oregano and garlic salt. Cook, uncovered, on High for 6 to 8 minutes or until bubbly, stirring every 3 minutes. Cook on High for 1 minute more.
Cover and set aside.
