Directions
Im so excited to share this baked ziti recipe with all of you! Ive tested this several times and got it just right! Its an easy one pot pasta recipe that takes less than 15 minutes to make. I tried this out on my picky husband and he loved it, so did I! More one pot recipes like this you might like Instant Pot Spaghetti and Meat Sauce or Instant Pot Turkey Meatball and Pasta Soup.,,So many things to love about this one pot dinner! Because this baked ziti cooks with the sauce, you honestly cant tell the pasta is whole wheat. Of course, when it comes to whole wheat pasta, you all know the only brand I like is Delallo. The texture is so much better than other brands, its the first brand that got me to convert and I love that its organic. They have a variety of shapes in whole wheat, but I really love their whole wheat cavatappi for this recipe. To keep the calories low I suggest making your own homemade marinara with their San Marzano imported tomatoes or one that doesnt have a lot of oil added.,Since the pasta is cooked right in the sauce, you will need to add water to the pot along with the sauce.,Make sure the liquid covers the pasta.,Once the pasta is ready, eat right away for al dente or the pasta will continue to absorb the sauce.,To make this on the stove, cook everything in a large pot with the same ingredients following the same method over med-low heat, covered about 16 to 20 minutes, or until pasta is cooked, stirring half way.
