Spaghetti Pie, Gluten Free Dairy Free

 

We loved the spaghetti pie my daughter made so much we needed to make it again. Of course, I tweaked it a bit to up the flavor (but it is still super easy) and added a couple of ingredients to up the creamy factor. I wanted something that could replace lasagna in a snap, was quick to make but as satisfying when you want some comfort food done gluten and dairy free. Enjoy!
