You know, I had never had baked ziti before - even eating out. I found this recipe when I was "on the prowl" for something totally different a couple of nights ago. Followed the recipe to a tee (except I subbed salt-free homemade meatless sauce and low-sodium chicken broth so that I could enjoy it without feeling guilty!) and BINGO! I was in business. Served it with a very crisp green salad topped with very spicy Greek olive oil dressing and my homemade sourdough croutons, and it was a meal to remember.

Delicious. I added lots of sliced mushrooms with the mince because I love them. I will make this again many times.

I made this tonight and followed Miller's lead using homemade meat sauce (only kind I had). I don't know if it was the addition of the chicken stock, but this was just delicious. I thought that the proportion of sauce/liquid to pasta was perfect, and reducing either would have resulted in a skimpy dish. I was careful to leave the boiled pasta undercooked so that by the time it came out of the oven it still had some bite to it. Thank you for a wonderful recipe, we'll make it often!

Wow! I would give this recipe 10 stars if I could! It was a very yummy dish and I would not change a thing. I used Prego chunky garden and it turned out awesome. This will be a favorite to make in my house again and again! Thank you!

Thanks for the great recipe! I only had a 26 oz. jar of spaghetti sauce on hand, so I decreased the chicken broth to 1/2 cup, and it was wonderful! My husband loved it and told me I need to make it again... so it's a keeper!

This is very good ziti and now the only was I am going to make it. I used Italian sausage and gr. beef for more zip. This got rave reviews from all.

The Classic Baked Ziti was great!! My kids and husband loved it. So easy to make. Was great to put together early in the day to have on a busy sport night. Made great left overs too. This one is a keeper. Thanks.

This was another great dish. Made plenty, ate the leftovers the next day, it tasted even better if that is possible.

I simply don't understand how anybody could have any complaints about this dish--it's fantastic, five stars all the way. I'd assign more if I could. I followed the recipe as best I could--pasta sauce is not sold in 32oz jars in Canada but 28oz, so I made up the difference with plain tomato sauce which I seasoned with extra oregano and some thyme--but also added some sliced fresh mushrooms to the meat-onion mixture. This was so easy to prepare, even after I was pooped after a day of xmas shopping, and makes an enormous dish of pasta--enough to generously feed 6, definitely. I was worried it wouldn't fit in the 13x9 pan, but it did. This recipe is a true keeper; I'll be making it often. Thanks for posting this winner!
