Pasta Pancake Recipes

PASTA PANCAKE

Steps:

• Prepare pasta per pkg directions & drain (I suggest breaking it as you put into the water or cut coarsely w/a knife after fully cooked).
• Preheat oven to 300°F.
• Warm leftover spaghetti sauce in sml pan over low heat.
• Beat eggs, milk & Parmesan cheese in a lrg mixing bowl. Add pasta, peas & corn. Toss till well-blended.
• Put 1/2 tbsp of the oil in a sml non-stick skillet over med heat. Toss pasta mixture again & place 1/4 of the pasta mix into the skillet.
• Flatten to an even layer. Cook about 1 min & then slide spatula around edges to be sure pancake doesn't stick. Cont cooking for about 3 min or till the underside is brown, shaking the pan 1-2 times to prevent sticking. Carefully flip pancake & cook about 3 more minute
• Slide pancake onto a baking sheet & keep warm in the oven while you repeat the process for the remaining pancakes. Do not stack the pancakes.
• When all 4 pancakes are cooked, top ea w/your leftover spaghetti sauce & serve w/more Parmesan cheese as desired.

CRISPY SPAGHETTI PANCAKE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the eggs, scallions, nutritional yeast, salt, and pepper and whisk until smooth. Add the spaghetti and toss to coat evenly.
• Heat a small skillet over medium heat and add enough oil to evenly coat the bottom. Add half of the spaghetti mixture, press with a spatula to flatten it, and cook until the pancake is golden brown, crispy all over, and slides out of the skillet easily, about 6 minutes. Invert the pancake on a plate, add a bit more oil to the skillet, and slide the pancake back in to cook the other side, about 5 to 6 minutes more. Transfer the pancake to a cutting board and cook the second pancake.
• To serve, slice the pancakes into 6 slices each and garnish with extra scallions, if desired. Serve immediately with the marinara.
