Ingredients


Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

  • 1 (16 ounce) package ziti pasta

  • 1 pound shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

  • 1 (15 ounce) container whole-milk ricotta cheese

  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided

  • ½ cup grated Romano cheese

  • ½ medium yellow onion, chopped

  • ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

  • 1 large egg

  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic

  • 1 teaspoon dried basil

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

  • ¼ teaspoon ground thyme

  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

  • 4 cups marinara sauce, divided

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. 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 8 minutes. Drain.

  3. Combine mozzarella cheese, ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, Romano cheese, onion, parsley, egg, garlic, basil, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Stir in ziti and 2 cups marinara sauce.

  4. Spread 1 cup marinara in the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish to coat. Pour ziti mixture into the dish; top with remaining 1 cup marinara, and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese. Cover dish with aluminum foil.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until heated through, about 20 minutes. Remove foil; continue baking until bubbly and cheese browned, about 10 minutes more. Remove from the oven; let sit 10 minutes before serving.
