Stir in sauce.

Mixture should be very wet because the spaghetti will continue to cook and absorb moisture.

Grease a large baking dish and put a layer of spaghetti, then a layer of one-third of the cheese, then a layer of one-half of the olives (both kinds), repeat, then more spaghetti.

Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and bake for 30 minutes or until warmed through.

Garnish with the remaining grated cheese and raw parsley.

Serve.
