Cheesy baked ziti made with marinara and alfredo sauces, Italian cheese blend, ricotta, ziti, topped with panko bread crumbs and Parmesan.
Ingredients:
  • 1 pound dry ziti pasta
  • 1 (8-ounce) package shredded Italian blend cheeses
  • 2 (24-ounce) jars marinara sauce
  • 1 (15-ounce) jar Alfredo sauce
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup Italian seasoned panko bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
Instructions:
  • Prepare all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Cook the pasta until it is just shy of al dente according to the package instructions. Drain the pasta and place it into a large bowl.
  • Reserved 1/2 cup of Italian blend cheeses.
  • Combine marinara sauce, Alfredo sauce, ricotta cheese, and the rest of the Italian blend cheeses with the pasta, and toss well.
  • Spread the pasta mixture evenly into the dish and generously sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese on top.
  • In a small bowl, mix panko, Parmesan, melted butter, and garlic. Sprinkle the mixture over the pasta in the baking dish.
  • Bake for 30 minutes until the top is a beautiful golden brown and the sauce is bubbling. Allow it to rest for 10 minutes before enjoying.
