Baked Ziti with Turkey Sausage

By

Citrus Pear

WHAT YOU'LL NEED:

  • 1 Citrus Pear Sloppy Janes Meal
  • 3 cups marinara sauce
  • 4-5 cups penne or rigatoni pasta
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, shredded
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded

HOW TO MAKE IT:

Cook Sloppy Janes meal according to directions.

Stir in marinara sauce and turn off the heat.

Meanwhile, cook pasta until al dente. Drain and toss with oil to prevent from sticking.

Preheat the oven to 375°F and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce in the bottom of the dish.

Top with half of the pasta, half of the sauce, half of the ricotta (dollop it and swirl into the sauce if you desire), half of the mozzarella and half of the Parmesan. Repeat layers one more time to use remaining ingredients.

Cover and bake for 20–30 minutes until bubbly.

Remove lid and broil for 1–2 minutes, if desired.
