Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Grease a 15x10x1-inch rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the 16-oz spaghetti according to package directions until al dente. Drain and rinse under cool running water to stop the cooking. Set the cooked spaghetti aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2/3 cup milk and 2 large eggs until combined.
- Add 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning, 1/2 tsp garlic salt, and salt and pepper to taste to the milk–egg mixture; whisk to incorporate.
- Add the drained spaghetti, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, and 1 cup of the shredded mozzarella (from the 3 cups); toss or stir until the spaghetti is evenly coated.
- Transfer the spaghetti mixture to the prepared baking sheet and spread it into an even layer, pressing gently so it holds together.
- Bake the spaghetti base in the preheated 400°F oven for 15 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 350°F. Evenly spread the 24-oz jar of spaghetti sauce over the baked spaghetti base. Sprinkle the remaining 2 cups shredded mozzarella over the sauce and add your pizza toppings.
- Return the pan to the 350°F oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Let cool a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes
Feel free to substitute pizza sauce or tomato sauce for the spaghetti sauce.
My favorite store-bought spaghetti sauces are Trader Joe’s Roasted Garlic Marinara (green label), Rao’s, and La Famiglia DelGrosso.
Don’t like red sauce? You can use alfredo sauce for a white pizza.
You can use any pizza toppings that you enjoy. I used pepperoni and Italian sausage. Bell peppers, ground beef, onions, olives, and mushrooms are all delicious. Customize this to your family’s preferences.
For a lower calorie option use turkey sausage and turkey pepperoni.
Can use any combination of cheese that you enjoy. I use mozzarella and parmesan cheese. Give this a try with cheddar, feta, asiago, or fontina. YUM!
Can Baked Spaghetti Pizza be made in advance? Yes! You can assemble the casserole ahead of time and refrigerate it until ready to bake.I usually make the first layer and cover the casserole with plastic wrap and refrigerate it.

Can Pizza Spaghetti Bake be frozen? Yes! Bake the casserole and cool completely. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and aluminum foil and freeze. When ready to eat, thaw and reheat covered in the oven or in the microwave.
