3. 3

   Beat eggs and add parmesan cheese in a large bowl.

   Add cooked and drained pasta (cooled slightly so as not to "scramble" the eggs) and toss well to coat.

5. 5

   Spread pasta mixture on bottom and up sides of 2- 9" glass deep dish pie plates. (Press it down firmly with a spoon to resemble the shape of a pie crust.).

6. 6

   Sprinkle 1/2 tablespoons Italian Seasoning evenly on pasta mixture on each 9" pie.

7. 7

   Spread 1/2 Ricotta cheese evenly on EACH pie, over the pasta mixture.

8. 8

   Top each pie with 1/2 the meat mixture.

9. 9

   Sprinkle each pie with 1 cup mozzerella cheese. (I sprinkle a little bit more Parmesan cheese on top -- ).

    Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 20 minutes, until the cheese melts and is SLIGHTLY crispy on top.
