I have been making this baked ziti recipe for so many years I'm not entirely sure where it came from anymore. The entire family loves it and it is requested on a regular basis by all of the kids. I love it because it is so no fuss that I could probably throw it together in my sleep. It only needs the 13x9 baking dish and a mixing spoon so the amount of dirty dishes is at a bare minimum and the ingredients list is only 4 items long (and one of them is water) and all are things I keep on hand most of the time. This dish has saved the day many times when we have un-expected dinner guests too. And yes, you are putting the pasta in the oven uncooked don't worry it cooks up wonderfully in the oven with the sauce and soaks up a lot of flavor from the sauce as a bonus.
Super Easy Baked Ziti
1pound ziti pasta, uncooked
1 jar of tomato based pasta sauce (24 to 26 ounce size)
water
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit
In a 13"x9" baking dish combine the pasta, the jar of sauce and enough water to fill the sauce jar. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
Uncover and stir the pasta and sauce. Sprinkle the top with the shredded cheese and return to oven for 10 minutes.
Allow to set for about 15 minutes before serving.
Serves 6 to 8 people
