Simple but great. I followed the recipe other then I used minced onions (I didn't measure them, I just dumped them in), minced garlic from a jar instead of the garlic salt, a pound of ground beef and a 13 ounce box of Dreamfield pasta. I added two cups of the mozzarella cheese to the pasta and sauce and topped with 1/2 cup. I also added 1/2 cup of parmesan cheese. I didn't cover this but cooked it for 20 minutes at 350 and the top browned nicely. This was really yummy but very simple to make. We all enjoyed it.

This is an awesome recipe - SO easy and everyone went back for seconds! (I'm a hero - Kim1 - thanks!) I prepared it the night before and put it in the fridge. It took longer to bake - about 50 minutes - but worked out great for our timing.

This was surprisingly delicious!(less ingredients than other ziti recipes,and great for when you are short on ingredients!) I got to the cupboard and was out of ziti, so I had to sub penne, which I used just a little over 2 cups. I used a 700 ml. jar of Ragu, which is just a little less than 28 ounces I think, and it was fine. I also added some Italian seasoning. The only thing I did a little differently was that I kinda layered it. I put about half the mixture into the 9x13, and added a thin layer of the cheese. I then added the other half and topped it off with more cheese, (so I may have used slightly more than what was called for) I sprinkled the top with a little dried parsley and I baked until is was bubbly and just slightly browned, which took about 25 mins. in my oven. Hubby even commented on how good this was,and said it tasted like lasagna...he asked me if it was hard to make! LOL! If he only knew how easy this was! I served with garlic bread that I made in the breadmaker, and we had a quick, easy and satisfying supper, with awesome leftovers! I will definitely make this again! Thanks, Kim!

A great recipe, yielding great results! I made this last night. Only substitution: I used a fresh garlic clove (sauteed w/ onion) in place of the teaspoon of garlic salt. Also added a dash of freshly grated Parmesan before baking just for fun. It was totally excellent.... Would make for great leftovers IF ONLY there were any of this delicious meal left over! Next time I will have to double this.
