Recipe Description
As I was browsing through Pinterest a few weeks ago, I saw a pin for rigatoni pie. I was so intrigued, I knew I had to try it. I was really in the mood for an Alfredo version since my hubby and I love Alfredo, so I changed this one up a bit. Cooking this in a spring form pan and removing the outside walls to the pan once cooked, this literally turned into a pasta pie. The kids were quite amazed and intrigued with the look of this. The pasta was tender, sauce was flavorful, and it made plenty to feed my family of 5 and STILL have over half the pasta left! Needless to say, this is an inexpensive, must try pasta dish!!
I made a video tutorial for those who would like to see how this is made. After stacking the pasta one by one in the pan, my hubby came up with a brilliant idea to speed along the process. Turn the spring form pan on its side and stack the pasta quickly. Much easier than having to get them to stand straight until pan is full.
