This one of our favorites and kids love it:
Here's what you need to get this done:
1-one pound Spaghetti pasta
2-one pound container Ricotta cheese(I prefer whole milk)
3-one egg
4-8 oz bag of shredded Mozzarella
5-1/2 cut grated cheese (I like Peccorino Romano NOT Parmigiano)
6-about 3 cups you home made tomato sauce(You have the recipe)
7-Parsley fresh or dry.
8-salt and pepper to taste
9-10 inch spring form pan(9 inch works too but it fill all the way to the top)
10-Pam
11-bread crumbs
Put you pasta pot on the stove and while that's heating up you prep everything else in a big big bowl
Step one beat your egg and add the parsley to that so that if you use dry it absorbs some moisture from the egg.
Dump you Ricotta into the bowl add the grated cheese and the Mozzarella to it and add the egg to it and sauce.
Mix it all together well and it's going to look loose that is normal.
By now the water should be boiling put your pasta in it and cook for HALF the cooking time on the box so if it says 10 minutes you cook it for 5 minutes.
Once it's done drain and let sit for a few minutes so the pasta cools a little.Then dump the pasta in the mixture and mix well. Spray you spring form pan sides and bottom and put enough bread crumbs in it to coat the sides and bottom.
Dump the bowl out into the pan and smooth it out as best you can.Bake in a 350 oven for about 40 minutes and take out let cool for about 20 minutes to a half hour and remove the sides of the pan and and cut and serve it should feed 6 people with no problem or you can cut it into portions and freeze the leftovers for another day. Unless you live here and the three of us make sure it gone by the next day.
Any questions?

It's basically Lasagna without the work or baked Ziti without the work even though you can do baked Ziti the exact same way.As far as too much of anything in it just back off whatever you don't like.
It's a recipe not a formula. Add deduct whatever you like even if it's peperoni or meat in it.It doesn't matter it's a basic technique only it's Spaghetti instead of what ever.
