Baked Ziti

Things have been a bit crazy around here this semester.  For the first time Dining Services was invited to participate in Wolverine Wednesday as well as the Zone.  While our gig with Wolverine Wednesday was last month, you can find us down in the Zone every Tuesday from 11-12.  So far we have taken a variety of samples from our different locations and have plans for more samples and some competitions coming up.  Hint hint nudge nudge maybe you should enter the Pumpkin Carving Contest!  Yesterday for the Zone we sampled our Baked Ziti dish from the Valley View.  There was a lot of positive feedback as this is always a popular dish.  Think warm fuzzy feelings and you get the basic flavor profile.  Several customers asked for a recipe concerning this dish and I figured it wouldn't hurt to pass it along to all of you. 

Ziti Pasta Bake

1 bag Rotini

1.25 lb Shredded Mozzarella Cheese

1 cans Marinara Sauce

Boil pasta to al dente.  Mix pasta with 1 lb of cheese and sauce.  Spray casserole dish with pan spray and pour mixture into dish. Top with remaining cheese.  Bake at 350 until cheese is melted. 

**Play with your measurements if you like your dish with more sauce and cheese as I do, feel free to add more.  Make it your own and most importantly ENJOY!
