Time 50m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (16 ounce) package ziti pasta
6 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 (24 ounce) jar pasta sauce (such as Ragu®)
1 (15 ounce) container ricotta cheese
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened and cubed
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons dried parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add ziti and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain.
  • Combine 4 cups mozzarella, pasta sauce, ricotta, cream cheese, 2 tablespoons Parmesan, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add cooked ziti and mix well to coat. Transfer to a 9x13-inch glass baking dish. Sprinkle remaining mozzarella and Parmesan over top, along with parsley. Cover with foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until thoroughly heated and cheese on top is melted, 20 to 30 minutes.

Followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! The only thing I would change is adding a bit more garlic next time.
