Creamy Ziti

Moms Creamy Ziti

Veggie week cooking with my Chef Mom has been fun. Mom and I did a special Bonus which is Creamy Ziti, so here we go.

Boil 1/2 box  ziti (Mom uses Penne Rigate or today she used Mezze Penne sometime she uses the very tiny penne)  with a little salt as directed until tender. Strain set aside. In a bowl add 15 oz ricotta whole milk, onion salt, parsley, dill weed, garlic powder, Mrs. dash. Mix your favorite pasta sauce (mom love tuttorosso traditional) She uses a lot of sauce in the mix depends on how much pasta she can use on jar to mix with the ricotta and add a little more sauce from a second jar, which makes it Creamy and not Dry. Sprinkle a little of shredded mozzarella cheese. Stir the above prior to adding the cooked Ziti. In a container put a little of the pasta sauce on the bottom, put the Ziti on top and put a little of the pasta sauce and sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top.

Moms secret for the Ziti not to dry it out over and over is you only heat or bake your portion not the entire Ziti plus her extra pasta sauce helps to make it moist.

Today I added a half pack of pollo chicken broth. You can add anything you love from veggies to meat.
