Ingredients:

1/2 pound whole wheat spaghetti
4 slices turkey bacon, diced (I use HAYTER'S)which is local and it is delish. Hope you find a good one for your recipes!
2 medium leeks, white parts only, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 1/4 cups fat free milk
1c fat free egg substitute
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 9 inch deep-dish pie plate with nonstick spray.

Cook the spaghetti according to package directions, omitting the salt if desired, drain and place in the pie plate.

Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat until browned, about 3 minutes. Add the leeks and garlic and cook, stirring, frequently, until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in the oregano, salt, and pepper. Spoon the bacon mixture over the spaghetti.

Combine the milk and egg substitute in a medium bowl; pour over the spaghetti mixture. Sprinkle with the cheese.

Place the pie plate on a baking sheet and bake until the center is set and the top is golden, 25-30 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes, cut into 6 wedges. ENJOY!
