Baked Ziti
"This Baked Ziti recipe might be a life-saver. Or at least, a reputation maker. It is the best family dinner recipe. And it is simple to make. Since life is crazy-busy for most of us, it’s tempting to do a fast grab for take-out on those days when appetites are big and energy is small. But that gets expensive and it’s not always convenient. Quick and easy Baked Ziti to the rescue! And I might be playing favorites here but I think this mostly one-pot recipe is the perfect pasta casserole."
