Baked Ziti Recipe:
Ingredients
PASTA
16 oz ziti pasta raw (whole wheat, white, or gluten-free)
4 cups marinara sauce store-bought or homemade
2 cups Alfredo sauce store-bought or homemade (replace it with heavy cream or plain Greek yogurt)
1/2 cup ricotta cheese full-fat
1 ½ cups Fontina cheese shredded
½ cup mozzarella cheese shredded
TOPPING
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs whole wheat, gluten-free, or white
1/4 cup Romano cheese grated (you may use Parmesan instead)
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese grated
2 cloves garlic minced or 1 teaspoon garlic powder although fresh garlic is better. You may add some freshly cracked black pepper to the topping mixture if you want.
GARNISH
3 tbsp chopped parsley or another fresh herb of choice

How to cook ziti:
1. Preheat the oven to 375° F (190° C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or large oven-safe skillet and reserve.
2. Cook the pasta 1-2 minutes less than the time stated on the package. Drain but do not rinse!
3. In a large bowl, stir together the cooked pasta with 1-2 tablespoon olive oil (if possible in order to avoid sticking), marinara sauce, Alfredo sauce, ricotta cheese, Fontina, and mozzarella until combined.
4. Pour into to the greased baking dish.
5. In another bowl, mix together the mozzarella, panko, Romano, Parmesan, and garlic. Then top the pasta with the mixture!
6. Bake on the middle rack for 30-35 minutes, uncovered, until golden brown and bubbly. Serve sprinkled with parsley!
