Spaghetti Pie

This kid pleasing dish is another one I found in our new church cookbook.  It was a cinch to put together and the adults in the house enjoyed it as much as the kids.  The consensus was that it tasted just like lasagna, which is a fancy Sunday dinner for us.  This came together much quicker than lasagna and is definitely going onto our weeknight menu.

6 oz. uncooked spaghetti noodles
2 eggs, well beaten
