Number Of Ingredients 8

16 ounces Mueller's Ziti
1 pound lean ground beef
1/2 cup onion, chopped
2 cloves minced garlic or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
6 cups meatless spaghetti sauce, divided
1 cup pasta water, reserved from cooking Ziti
2 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated and divided

Steps:

  • Slightly undercook Ziti, about 8 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the pasta cooking water, cover and set aside. Preheat oven to 375 degrees fahrenheit. In large skillet over medium heat cook beef, onion and garlic; stirring frequently 6-8 minutes or until beef is browned. Drain excess fat. Stir in 5 cups of sauce and pasta water. Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes. Mix meat/sauce mixture with Ziti. Spoon 1/2 of Ziti mixture into 13x9 baking dish. Sprinkle with Mozzarella and 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese. Top with remaining Ziti mixture and remaining 1 cup Spaghetti sauce. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese. Bake 25-30 minutes or until heated through.

This recipe was a disaster. The pasta was overcooked and the sauce was too watery.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out bland. I think I'll add more spices next time.
