Baked Ziti

Ingredients 🍝🧀

-Spaghetti Sauce

-Alfredo sauce

-Penne noodles

-2 pounds of ground beef

-16 oz of mozzarella cheese

-Italian seasoning

-Seasoning salt

-Garlic powder

-Parsley

1. Preheat oven to 350

2. Brown ground beef until fully cooked and no pink showing, add your seasonings. I measured with my heart here. Add spaghetti sauce and simmer.

3. Boil penne noodles until soft.

4.Add Alfredo sauce to noodles and mix together.

5. In a large pan or casserole dish place noodles on bottom. You will then add your ground beef to completely cover the noodles.

6. Add mozzarella cheese to the top of ground beef mixture.

7. Sprinkle with Parsley to your hearts desire.

8. Bake at 350 for 30 mins. ⏰

9. Serve with garlic toast and a salad! My kids like to sprinkle butt cheese (Parmesan cheese-I truly don’t know why we call it this 🤣)

10. Enjoy!!! 🍝

Baked Ziti is a classic Italian-American dish that's loved by families everywhere. This hearty meal combines layers of flavorful ground beef, rich spaghetti sauce, and creamy Alfredo, all enveloped by tender penne noodles and gooey mozzarella cheese. To enhance your Baked Ziti experience, consider adding vegetables like spinach or mushrooms for added nutrition and flavor. You can also adjust the amount of cheese to your liking, or even use a mix of different cheeses such as ricotta for added creaminess. The key to perfect Baked Ziti is to allow it to bake until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown. This dish is not just a crowd pleaser but also a great option for potlucks or meal prep, providing indulgent leftovers that are just as delicious reheated the next day. So gather your loved ones, serve with garlic toast and a fresh salad, and enjoy this cozy, comforting meal that’s sure to become a family favorite. Happy cooking!
