"A farily easy pasta pie that you bake in a skillet. Feel free to use hot or sweet sausage (your preference) or ground beef. We prefer the hot. Use a good quality spaghetti sauce (I use one of the Classico varieties). This is a pretty forgiving recipe, that you can adapt to your own taste."

ingredients

¹⁄₂ lb Italian sausage
2 cups spaghetti sauce
12 ounces fettuccine pasta
3 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (or 1 tsp dried)
¹⁄₃ cup parmesan cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

directions

Remove sausage from casing and fry in a 10" oven-proof skillet, breaking up the meat and cooking until no longer pink. Brush the drippings on the sides of the skillet and drain off the excess.
Pour the spaghetti sauce over the sausage.
Cook the fettucine in boiling water until just done - al dente. Drain.
Toss with eggs, butter, parsley and the cheeses until the butter melts and the ingredients are well mixed.
Place the noodles over the sauce in the skillet, trying not to disturb the sauce.
Cover with a greased sheet of foil (I use a cooking spray).
Bake @ 350* for 30 minutes. Remove from oven & invert onto serving plate. Cut into wedges to serve.

Fantastic meal for our family! I used ground beef for the meat this time and followed your instructions completely. This holds together well for slicing - I think mainly due to the fettucini noodles and not an overage of sauce. My kids really enjoyed this which makes it a 5 star in my book for sure!
