The best baked ziti recipe for those who like it very cheesy and flavorful!
Ingredients
- 1 (16 ounce) package ziti pasta
- 6 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 (24 ounce) jar pasta sauce (such as Ragu®)

Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add ziti and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain.
