Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with olive oil.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper until combined.
Add the leftover cooked spaghetti to the bowl and toss to coat it evenly with the egg mixture.
Spread half of the spaghetti mixture into the prepared baking dish, pressing it down slightly to create an even layer.
Pour 1 cup of the marinara or spaghetti sauce over the spaghetti layer, spreading it evenly.
Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese on top of the sauce layer.
Repeat with the remaining spaghetti mixture, marinara sauce, and cheeses to create a second layer.
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the casserole is heated through.
Let the baked spaghetti rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
