These mini spaghetti pies are so cute and so much fun to eat. It was a great change to our usual spaghetti night. I loved the individual pies. We ate these for dinner, and I ate leftover for lunch the next few days. They tasted great reheated. These mini spaghetti pies are also great for a quick freezer meal. Since they are small, they reheat in a flash!

It looks like a long process to make these, but I had everything going at once and it didn’t take long at all. Boil the noodles and cook the sausage at the same time. Mix up the cheese filling while all that is going on and you are ready to assemble the pies when the pasta is done cooking.

  2. These were so good and so easy to pull together! My 2 year old got a kick out of my calling them spaghetti pies. This is going in my weeknight menu rotation for sure!

  3. I love your recipes – read them every day!! I often save the recipes to a program I have which captures the recipe and the photo. It would be so nice if your photos weren't so large as they take up a lot of space.
