Directions
- Step 1Preheat oven to 350°.
- Step 2In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook spaghetti until very al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain and return to pot. Add eggs, cream cheese, Parmesan, and cottage cheese and mix until the pasta is evenly coated in the egg-cheese mixture. Transfer mixture to a large baking dish.

Drain fat and season with salt, pepper, and oregano. Add marinara and bring mixture to boil, then reduce heat and simmer, 5 minutes.
