Baked ziti has all the ingredients of lasagna without the extra work. For a vegetarian option, omit the sausage. Try a variety of vegetables such as pepper, onions, and mushrooms. To reheat the next day, add extra sauce as the pasta will absorb the sauce.
Directions
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
- Cook ziti according to package directions.
- Cook sausage in a skillet on medium heat until no longer pink.
- Pour sauce in a small pot and heat on low heat.
- In a bowl, mix together ricotta, egg, salt, pepper, basil, parsley, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese until well-blended.
- Drain ziti and pour back into pot.
- Add sausage, cheese mixture, and vodka sauce to the ziti and mix through.
- Pour everything in a baking dish and bake covered for 50-60 minutes.
- Serve with your favorite salad.
