Fettuccine makes the crust, and someone else makes the meatballs and sauce. This pie couldn't get any easier!

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

What used to be called “spaghetti sauce” is now most often called “marinara sauce” because its uses stretch far beyond spaghetti. Either sauce will work, and the flavor choices are endless!

The pie is covered with aluminum foil to keep the edge of the crust moist, not dry and chewy.

This was an easy recipe to make and it tasted great. I made homemade meatballs and baked them for about 20 minutes before I added them to the pie. They added a lot of flavor. It was easy and I will make this again.
