Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 lb Ziti noodles
  • 1 lb Whole Milk Ricotta Cheese
  • 3 Oz Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • 28 oz Canned Tomato Sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
  • 3 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Instruction

  • Pre-heat oven to 350°F.
  • Cook ziti according to package instructions.
  • While ziti is cooking mix together, ricotta, 1 3/4 cups tomato sauce, Parmesan, and 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese in a large bowl. Make sure that the bowl is large enough to accommodate the cooked pasta.
  • Drain ziti, do not rise, and add to the tomato sauce mixture. Stir to evenly mix.
  • Pour pasta and sauce into a baking dish. I recommend a very deep 8x8 or a round dutch oven.
  • Top with remaining cheese and chopped parsley.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes until hot and bubbly.
  • Allow pasta to sit for about 5-7 minutes before serving.
  • Warm the tomato sauce and spoon over the top of the pasta when served on individual plates.
