Chef notes
This is my adaptation of TV host Adam Richman's recipe. When Adam made his spaghetti pie on the TODAY show, it went viral. It's one of their top requested recipes. After making my own version, I had to agree it was pretty fantastic. Serve it with a green salad and garlic bread.
Technique tip: The sauce recipe is already doubled for you. I always freeze half the sauce. It's the perfect base for lasagna or spaghetti. Having spaghetti sauce in the freezer is like having good insurance always there when you need it. And trust me, you will need it!
Swap option: When substituting fresh herbs for dried herbs, always remember that dried herbs are three times more potent than fresh. When the moisture is removed during the drying process, the herb's flavor is concentrated. The good news is that all dried herbs can withstand a long cooking process and keep their flavor. Fresh herbs, on the other hand, have a big burst of flavor and then that flavor dies. Neither is better than the other. Just remember to add fresh herbs at the very end of the cooking time in order to maximize their flavor burst.
