ziti al forno

I'm going to share with you a piece of my childhood. When I was a child my family used to make this all of the time. I am grown and married and I make it for my husband and son. It has a great table presentation, is cheap to make, and takes no time at all!! Ready to impress everyone you know??
What you need:
1 box ziti noodles (1lb)
1lb ground sausage
1 jar of your favorite sauce
1 clove garlic
1/2 med onion diced
Italian seasoning to taste
1 bag of Italian blend cheese


Preheat oven to 375. Cook noodles according to package directions. While noodles are cooking, place onion and garlic in a frying pan with extra virgin olive oil. Saute for 5 mins. Add sausage and Italian seasoning to taste. Cook until sausage is done. Add the jar of sauce and stir into the sausage. Turn burner on low and let simmer until noodles are done. When finished, put the noodles into a baking dish and pour sauce and 1/2 of cheese on top. Combine well. Top with remaining cheese. Bake until cheese is melted and slightly brown.
Pair with store-bought garlic bread and a nice salad.


Turn the lights low and light some candles. Your guests will be stunned! Even if you can burn water this recipe will turn out perfect. It's completely idiot proof.I promise


TA-DA!! Quick easy nice dinner with minimal effort.
