Made this for a Halloween themed potluck. The sauce and meatballs are made from scratch but the squid ink pasta is store bought. I used fresh mozzarella + black olives for the eyes.

Taste wise, it tastes exactly like spaghetti and meatballs but it does look very strange though.

Technically the pasta shape is not spaghetti but fileja so it should really be fileja and meatballs. I really wanted squid ink pasta for this but I couldn't find squid ink spaghetti.

Huh, I was convinced the pasta was asparagus before reading the post.
