spaghetti dinner

Italian noodle supper

A spaghetti dinner is a casual meal centered on spaghetti, typically served with sauce, bread, and salad.

The term often refers to community fundraising events hosted by churches, schools, or civic organizations: The fire department is holding a spaghetti dinner to raise money for new equipment.

These events are popular because the ingredients are inexpensive and easily scaled for crowds.
