Spaghetti Parmesan Torte

Preheat the oven to its highest temperature setting, which is 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Next, take a can of cooking spray and thoroughly cover the interior surface of a 9x3 inch round cake pan. This will prevent any food residue from sticking to the surface of the pan.

While waiting for your spaghetti to cook, prepare a large mixing container by combining grated Parmesan cheese, soft ricotta cheese, dried Italian seasoning, and egg whites. Mix everything together until well combined.

Once your spaghetti has finished cooking, immediately submerge it in a large container of cold water to stop the cooking process. After the spaghetti has cooled down, carefully pour out the water and drain off any excess liquid.

While your spaghetti is still warm, place it in the mixing container with the Parmesan cheese mixture. Mix everything together until your spaghetti is evenly coated.

Divide the spaghetti mixture in half and press it firmly into the bottom of your prepared cake pan. Sprinkle a portion of fresh basil leaves over the top, followed by a layer of sliced tomatoes and half of the shredded provolone cheese. Repeat this process with the remaining spaghetti mixture, finishing it off by sprinkling the rest of the basil leaves and topping it with the remaining tomatoes. Finish the dish off by placing a layer of provolone cheese on top.

Place your cake pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes. Remove it from the oven after 30 minutes have passed, allowing the dish to stand for about 15 minutes before you remove it from the pan. Transfer your finished dish to a serving platter and cut it into wedges for everyone to enjoy.
