Ingredients
- olive oil
- 1/2 onion, chopped
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- pepper, to taste
- 1 bell pepper, chopped fine
- 1 can diced tomatoes 28 oz. can
- 1 box 16 oz. ziti pasta, cooked al dente (The pasta should be firm, not hard. The pasta will cook a bit more when you bake it, so my rule of thumb is about 2 minutes less than the directions call for.)
- 2 cups mozzarella, grated or 4-5 mozzarella cheese sticks cut into 8 pieces each
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese
Instructions
- Saute the onion, bell pepper and salt for 4-5 minutes or until onions are translucent. Add the garlic and cook an additional minute.
- Add the tomatoes and cook the sauce for 15 minutes over medium heat. The sauce will thicken as it cooks.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Combine the sauce, pasta, parmesan and 1 1/2 cups mozzarella in a large bowl or pot and pour into a lightly oiled 9 x 11 casserole dish. Top with remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella. Can be prepared at this point the night before.
- Bake uncovered for 30 minutes or until golden and bubbly.
