GHSS: French Onion Spaghetti Pie

When I first flipped through this book, I just knew I would never make this recipe. I like spaghetti the way I like spaghetti and I didn't feel like I needed to try it any other way. All of that changed when Collin asked if I would stop making Salmon for a while...which is what I was going to make for dinner... and I realized that I already have most of the ingredients needed for this recipe.

The ingredient I didn't have? White wine. Why? Cause I drank it earlier in the week. Thanks mom, for giving me one of your bottles.

Now I'm just going to come right out and say that while this recipe wasn't the worst thing I've ever made, I will not ever make it again and the leftovers will likely make it into the trash. It was just very bland. I had to add a fuck ton of crushed red pepper to make it through the dish and I wish I would have added bacon. You also need about 3 mixing bowls and a pot in addition to your skillet. It's exhausting just writing all of that out. So many dishes for a not-so-great reward.

You also need 1 1/2 cups of Gruyere cheese which, aside from being hella expensive, added zero flavor. I honestly wish I would have used pepper jack or something with a little more oomph to it.

The real winner here was the breadcrumb topping. That shit was legit.

Whole

It did slice quite nicely

Nice and Sturdy

I won't post the recipe because I really don't think it's worth it, but if you would like to give it a shot and see if you can make it work holler at me. I'll send it your way. 

Next stop is the meatloaf train...tonight!
