Baked Pasta with Feta
From Ars Cookbook

I prefer this as a side dish, but it can be served as a main dish. Perhaps with a Caponata on the side.

Ingredients
- 1 lb. spaghetti (Barilla brand multi-gran spaghetti works well with this dish)
- 1 lb. feta cheese or well salted ricotta, crumbled
- 4 TBLSP melted butter
- 3 eggs beaten
- 1 TBLSP minced parsley
- 1 tsp. ground nutmeg
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
Directions
Break spaghetti into thirds. Cook pasta for 6-8 minutes.
Mix all other ingredients together. Add spaghetti when it is ready. Place in greased baking dish. Bake in oven for 20 minutes until top becomes golden brown. Let stand 15 minutes.
The dish can be a little dry. If served as an entree, Try drizzling a little olive oil and tossing once it is out of the oven.
Notes
You can top this with bread crumbs and olive oil if you really want. You can top it with chopped olives, sun-dried tomatoes or grated carrots. Plain is best in my opinion.
