Why this is the best Pizza Spaghetti recipe
This is an easy recipe made with leftover pasta, so you can relax while cooking. As always, I also bring you step by step pictures with which it is even easier to prepare with always perfect results.
My dish really lives from its simple flavors from garlic, Italian herbs, and tomato sauce that when combined just get to another level.
Filling and budget friendly, this will make a good amount of portions and you can easily double the amount depending on how large your casserole dish is.

This was SO GOOD! So well balanced, the saltiness of the olives and vegan pepperoni with the other ingredients. Aswell as the storebought & homemade cheese in the ingredients I also added in these vegan brand mediterranean tomato & basil cheese slices. It went so well with the pepperoni spaghetti! this was one of the most satisfying fulfilling dinners I made all year, my housemates adored it too! thank you for sharing your adaptations of classic flavour recipes! I am so appreciative of them

I love this recipe as well as all of Florian’s recipes that I’ve tried! I’m not even vegan/vegetarian — But my daughter is! I was looking up in general easy meals to make and contentednesscooking came up! Everything looked delicious And very doable for me to make! So happy I found this site! I make the recipes either vegan or regular depending on who I’m cooking for! All love what I’ve made either way! Right now I am making the artisan buckwheat bread which is “resting” in the warmth today on my windowsill ! I can bake it tomorrow AM! Looking forward to that, too!
