Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 1 lb pasta ((your choice, I like spirals or bow ties for this recipe!))
  • 1 medium zucchini (, chopped)
  • 8 oz baby bella mushrooms (, diced (other variety would be fine too))
  • 16 ounces pasta sauce (, your choice on type - I like marinara or a chunky vegetable variety )
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese (, shredded and divided)
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (, shredded)
  • 1 TBS Italian seasoning

Instruction

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to package directions. When there is 2 minutes left before the pasta is done, add zucchini and mushrooms into pot. Cook remaining 2 minutes. Strain.
  • Preheat broiler on high.
  • Add pasta sauce to pot, then add the strained pasta/veggies into the sauce. Mix well. Add 1/3 cup of mozzarella cheese into pot. Mix well.
  • Grease a large casserole dish with cooking spray, and then dump pasta mixture into baking dish. Top with remaining 2/3 cup mozzarella and 1/4 cup parmesan cheeses. Sprinkle Italian seasoning over the top.
  • Place under the broiler and cook for 3-5 minutes. Watch closely as it can burn quickly and cook time depends on oven. When the cheese is bubbly and browning remove from oven.
  • Serve and enjoy!
