This makes a huge 9X13 dish. if it is only your small family you may want to cut it in half. Even though we are a small family I always make big dishes we love leftovers for lunches the next day or a quick dinner if we are short on time. Luckily my husband thinks it is great when we have leftovers and enough for dinner the next night I finally caught onto why he thought this.... He watches the kids while I cook. If I do not have to cook, he does not have to watch the kids. now I am onto his tricks I will have to think of a new time for him to entertain the while I am busy doing my thing.
It is a great dinner with simular taste as lasagna only easier the cheese and sour cream add a great and unexpected tang. add green beans or a salad and you have a great meal
1 pound dry ziti pasta ( I always use whole wheat, you cannot even tell) 1 onion, chopped 1 pound ground meat. I love Italian sausage or turkey it gives more flavor 2 (26 ounce) jars spaghetti sauce | 6 ounces provolone cheese, sliced 1 1/2 cups sour cream 6 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. | Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add ziti pasta, and cook until al dente, about 8 minutes; drain. |
2. | In a large skillet, brown onion and ground beef over medium heat. Add spaghetti sauce, and simmer 15 minutes. |
3. | Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish. Layer as follows: 1/2 of the ziti, Provolone cheese, sour cream, 1/2 sauce mixture, remaining ziti, mozzarella cheese and remaining sauce mixture. Top with grated Parmesan cheese. |
4. | Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until cheeses are melted. |
Looks yummy! Do you have a print option or do I just need to copy and paste into Word?
