Baked Ziti

Baked Ziti - classic Italian comfort food made with hearty pasta, flavorful sausage, a homemade marinara and layered with ricotta, mozzarella and parmesan cheese! It's a lot like lasagna but it's faster since layers are lazier, but of course it tastes equally as good!

Single serving of baked ziti in a pasta bowl, garnished with fresh parsley on top.

The Best Baked Ziti Recipe!

Something about winter just says comfort food, right? It's so nice to just cozy up to a warm from the oven dinner on a bitter cold day.

And it's always nice to dive into a baked ziti dish that's loaded with that deliciously irresistible, melty gooey cheese! It's made with three kinds, who could resist that?

Plus this is one of those casserole style dinners that makes great leftovers. The flavors just get that much more time to meld in the fridge until the next day.

The Homemade Sauce

What really sets the baked ziti apart is the flavorful sauce. Fresh homemade is always best right?

It's better than bottled sauce and worth the extra effort!

And with this sauce it's all about those fresh herbs. Don't skip them, they add so much flavor to this baked ziti!
