Baked Ziti

1 pound ground beef (I used ground turkey)
1/2 an onion, chopped
1 can pasta sauce (just over 1 pound in weight)
1/2 box (8 ounces) tube-shaped pasta (I couldn't find ziti, so I used rotini), cooked and drained
1 package shredded mozzarella cheese (about 2 cups)
Parmesan cheese

Brown the beef/turkey and onion together until it is well browned, stirring frequently to break up meat. Pour off any fat. (with turkey there is none!)

Stir the sauce, pasta, 2/3 of the mozzarella, and meat in a big bowl. Pour into a 9x13 pan. Top with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.

Bake at 350, for 30 minutes or until hot.

*This also works as a freezer meal! Prepare, but do not bake. Pour mixture into a foil pan. Cover with foil and freeze. Bake uncovered, at 350 for 1 hour or until hot.

  1. This looks great, we'll try it out. My favorite part is the freezer meal adaptation!! Freezer meals are my new FAVORITE THING!!! Especially with a dish this large, I would put it in two 8x8 dishes, cook one, freeze one!
