Is it a pizza??? Nope it’s a pie. We’ll sort of? My kids were complete ecstatic when this big beauty came out of the oven tonight. This is so super easy and has all the great flavors of a delicious spaghetti dinner. You can most certainly substitute with any GF spaghetti instead and I highly recommend using a “corn” spaghetti. I really hope y’all get the chance to make and enjoy this recipe just as my family and I did tonight. Ciao. ❤️
1 lb Long Spaghetti ( substitute corn spaghetti for GF option)
1 package of sliced Pepperoni
1 large can of crushed or puréed tomatoes
