Ingredients:
– 1 (8-ounce) package spaghetti, broken into 2-inch pieces
– 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
– 1/4 cup milk
– 1 large egg, beaten
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
– 1 (16-ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
– 4 ounces pepperoni sausage, sliced
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
2. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook the spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water.
3. In a large bowl, mix together 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese, milk, egg, salt, and garlic salt. Add the drained spaghetti and toss until well combined. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
4. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C).
5. Spread the spaghetti sauce evenly over the noodle mixture. Sprinkle with oregano and basil, then top with the remaining 1 1/2 cups of mozzarella cheese. Arrange the pepperoni slices on top.
6. Return the dish to the oven and bake until the cheese is bubbly and beginning to brown, about 30 minutes. Let it stand for 5 minutes before cutting.
Enjoy!
