How to Make Baked Ziti Ww

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook 1 lb Italian sausage, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 1 green bell pepper, chopped, to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Stir in 28 oz crushed tomatoes, 1 cup frozen peas, 6 oz tomato paste, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1 tsp dried basil, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp salt. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat, and cook uncovered for 5 minutes.
  5. Stir in 1 lb cooked ziti pasta and 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese.
  6. Pour the mixture into a greased 13x9 inch baking dish.
  7. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden brown.
  9. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
