Three Cheese Baked Ziti
Why I Love This Recipe
I was excited to find this recipe on the Whole Foods website. Not only is it super-easy, but it's also fairly cheap - definitely a staple in my recipe box.
Ingredients You'll Need
1 pound 365 Organic Everyday Value™ Penne Rigate pasta
1 (25 ounce) jar 365 Organic Everyday Value™ Classic Pasta Sauce
1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
1/2 cup Whole Creamery™ Grated Parmesan Cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
sea salt, to taste
ground pepper, to taste

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Cook pasta according to package directions. Allow to cool 5 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, combine 1 1/2 cups pasta sauce, ricotta cheese, Parmesan and fresh basil in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Toss the pasta with the cheese and sauce mixture. Spread 1/2 cup pasta sauce in the bottom of a baking dish. Pour the pasta mixture into the dish and drizzle the remaining sauce over the top. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
