With the hectic schedules that families have; a quick dinner solution is especially helpful. I used whole wheat pasta and a jar of tomato basil sauce. This is such a versatile recipe.” —Terri
Ingredients for Spaghetti Pizza
Super simple ingredients here – you should have the basics already in the pantry. It’s up to you if you want to run to the store for some fresh toppings.
- Spaghetti: Classic spaghetti is the best shape here. The long strands will join together well in the pan to bake into a”pizza crust”.
- Tomato Sauce: I use classic tomato sauce and add spices, but you can certainly grab (or make) marinara sauce instead. This spaghetti pizza is unhinged – there are no rules.
- Eggs: This is the glue that helps our pasta hold together! It also adds a bit of protein.
- Cheese: Parmesan also helps holds things together, and combined with mozzarella is the traditional pizza taste. Cheddar is a great option to add on top.
What Type Of Pasta?
Long pasta noodles are best for this spaghetti pizza recipe because they tangle together into a thick crust! You can use many types of pasta, like angel hair, bucatini, or even fettuccine.
How to make Spaghetti Pizza
This is SO easy – cook the pasta, mix everything together, and bake!
Step 1: Prep
Heat up the oven, and get a large stockpot of water ready to go. I always like to salt my pasta water for maximum flavor.
Step 2: Spaghetti
Cook according to the box directions. Make sure not to go past al dente as the pasta will cook more once it’s coated in sauce and in the oven.
Step 3: Stir
Stir together the drained pasta with the eggs and Park, and half the tomato sauce with half the mozzarella. This gets everything nice and coated.
Step 4: Assemble
Spread the coated pasta into your rimmed sheet pan. Make sure it has sides on it or you’ll have a mess on your hands (and oven!). Top with remaining sauce and cheese, and any fresh toppings you’d like.
Step 5: Bake
Bake until everything is golden and the cheese is melted. Cut into squares and serve!
Recipe tips
Mexican Pizza: Stir in a drained can of black beans for extra protein, and use a Mexican blend cheese or sub more cheddar in for the mozzarella.
Meat Lovers: Add some vegan pepperoni on top instead of or with the tomatoes.
Make It Homemade: Put even more love into this pizza by making your own marinara sauce.
Low Carb: Make a low carb version of this recipe by using cooked spaghetti squash in place of the spaghetti noodles.
Leftovers: Store slices in an airtight container for grab and go convenience. You can reheat in the microwave, in a skillet, or the air fryer (you can use these directions for air frying leftover pizza). It’s even great cold while standing in front of the fridge (🙋🏼♀️).
FAVORITE SHEET PAN
This large nonstick sheet pan is one of my everyday favorites!

I made this recipe tonight. I love that it uses ingredients that are readily available in the pantry and fridge. With the hectic schedules that families have; a quick dinner solution is especially helpful. I used whole wheat pasta and a jar of tomato basil sauce. This is such a versatile recipe. Easily customized to your preferences in toppings and flavors or make sections of the sheet pan to suit each family member. I traditionally add dried basil & oregano to water when I cook pasta so I did it while making this recipe. To me, Pizza just isn’t complete without a nice layer of assorted roasted peppers and sweet onion under the top layer of cheese. Cuts perfectly with a pizza cutter. My only criticism is that I would add an extra cup or so of sauce when coating the pasta.

Whole wheat pasta is SUCH a great idea here – so much healthier! And I love the addition of the roasted peppers and onions, yum! Thanks for your review, Terri!

So funny, a version of this was served at a white elephant party, a few weeks ago, and I loved it! When I saw this recipe on your blog, I knew that the Universe was winking at me.
I had everything I needed, except fresh tomatoes and basil, so I made sure to get them. I know I could have made it w/o those and it would have still been good, but your pictures made me want it just like you had it. So worth it!
I wish I had had this recipe when my daughter was a kid. It would probably have been a regular on our menu. She’s 21 now. But luckily, she is coming over tomorrow and I have some leftover. We can share.

OMG why didn’t I know about this before?! This was a win win win with our fam. I prepped it last night when I made miso pasta, because today we were going to be gone all day skiing. It was one of the best meals ever I just had to heat it up. Again, my carnivores even raved about it. Thank you Sarah another amazing recipe!
Becky Bingham says
This was a great way to use up pasta. I used lentil spaghetti noodles. The kids and I thought it was delicious, and leftovers were great as lunches during the week.
Kari ward says
This is a great recipe especially if you have left over spaghetti- or left over Buffalo Mac n cheese.
Sarah Bond says
