A family favorite, and a meatless meal!
Ingredients:
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
Directions:
1. Cook pasta according to package directions (a little oil added to the water helps keep it from sticking together).
2. Set aside.
3. Spray a 13x9 glass baking dish with cooking spray.
4. Spread a thin layer of sauce in bottom of the dish.
5. Next, layer of 1/3 of the mushrooms and 1/3 of the pasta.
6. Spread all the ricotta over this layer.
7. Then layer half the remaining sauce, another 1/3 mushrooms and another 1/3 pasta.
8. Sprinkle all the Parmesan cheese over this layer.
9. Finally, layer remaining sauce, mushrooms and pasta.
10. Cover this layer with the mozzarella.
11. Place the slices of Provolone on top.
12. Cover and bake at 375 for 30-40 minutes.
