A bubbling baked pasta layered with sweet Italian sausage, ricotta and melted mozzarella. Built almost entirely from this week's sale items and generous enough to feed a crowd.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Sweet or Hot Italian Sausage, casings removed

  • 1 lb Pasta (ziti or penne)

  • 1 jar Pasta Sauce

  • 2 cups Ricotta

  • 2 cups Shredded Cheese

  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan

  • 1 tbsp Minced Garlic

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and grease a 9x13 baking dish.

Step 2: Cook the pasta one minute short of package directions, then drain.

Step 3: Brown the sausage in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it up as it cooks, then stir in the garlic and pasta sauce.

Step 4: Toss the drained pasta with the sausage sauce and spread half into the dish.

Step 5: Dollop the ricotta over the pasta, add the remaining pasta, then top with shredded cheese and Parmesan.

Step 6: Bake 30 to 35 minutes until bubbling and golden, then rest 10 minutes before serving.

Chef's Tip: Let the bake rest for ten minutes before cutting so the ricotta layer sets and the slices hold together.

Save by using one pan stretches across two weeknight dinners and Serve with a green salad and warm garlic bread.
