ITALIAN BAKED CHICKEN AND PASTA
Courtesy of Giada DeLaurentiis! I made this today after sitting on the recipe for quite some time. I am sorry I held on to it. It will be in my regular rotation from now on, it was easy, quick and very tasty. I will change a few things though...I will use tomatoes with Italian seasoning and maybe a little more cheese next time! I even think it would be good if you added some ricotta to the mix. There are a lot of possibilities, but it was good as it is written. I doubled the recipe and it was fine. Enjoy!

BAKED ITALIAN PASTA CASSEROLE
This is an easy, cheap, lasagna-style pasta dish. My kids make it on their cooking night. Use any non-string pasta - macaroni, small shells, penne, etc. Use ground turkey and low fat cheeses to make more healthful. If I have time, I will saute onion, mushrooms, bell pepper, zucchini or something else on hand with the meat and add to the sauce.

Steps:
- 1. Fry ground beef with diced onion and garlic until meat is no longer pink and onion is clear. Drain if necessary (but by using the 93 % lean meat, I usually don't find it greasy at all and draining is not necessary.)
- 2. Cook pasta as directed on box, using a large pot, drain and put aside.
- 3. In a large pot, place the spaghetti sauce (I usually use my own homemade) add the 2 cans of diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, the water from rinsing out the cans, and the envelope of dry Italian salad dressing and recipe mix along with the mushrooms if using, and STIR WELL.
- 4. Add the meat mixture and pasta and stir well.
- 5. Place in 9 X 13 inch baking dish and top with the 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese.
- 6. Bake at 375 for about 25 - 30 minutes or until bubbly and the cheese is melted.
