8 ounces spaghetti |
3 tablespoons butter |
1 egg |
1/2 cup shredded monterey jack cheese |
3/4 lb ground beef |
1/3 cup chopped onion |
1/4 cup chopped green pepper |
8 ounces tomato sauce |
4 ounces diced green chilies |
1 teaspoon chili powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
1/3 cup sliced ripe olives |
1 small tomato, chopped |
Directions:
1. Cook the spaghetti according to package directions and return pasta to saucepan.
2. Add the butter and egg.
3. Mix well and press into a 10 inch pie pan.
4. Sprinkle 1/2 cup cheese over the bottom of the crust.
5. Bake in a 375°F oven for 8-10 minutes.
6. In a large skillet, sauté the ground beef, onion and green pepper; drain off the fat.
7. Add the tomato sauce, undrained chili peppers, chili powder and salt; heat through.
8. Spoon the meat mixture into the spaghetti shell.
9. Bake for 15 minutes.
