Time 45m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb ziti pasta, uncooked
1 (26 1/2 ounce) jar of your favorite spaghetti sauce (we prefer the canned Hunt's Traditional flavor - cheap too!)
1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms (can use 2 cans stems & pieces if you don't have fresh)
1 (15 ounce) container part-skim ricotta cheese
8 ounces parmesan cheese, grated or shredded
1 (8 ounce) package shredded mozzarella cheese
6 slices round provolone cheese

Steps:

  • Cook pasta according to package directions (a little oil added to the water helps keep it from sticking together).
  • Set aside.
  • Spray a 13x9 glass baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Spread a thin layer of sauce in bottom of the dish.
  • Next, layer of 1/3 of the mushrooms and 1/3 of the pasta.
  • Spread all the ricotta over this layer.
  • Then layer half the remaining sauce, another 1/3 mushrooms and another 1/3 pasta.
  • Sprinkle all the Parmesan cheese over this layer.
  • Finally, layer remaining sauce, mushrooms and pasta.
  • Cover this layer with the mozzarella.
  • Place the slices of Provolone on top.
  • Cover and bake at 375 for 30-40 minutes.
