How to Make Janie Marzetti

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 8x8 inch square glass baking dish.
  2. Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain, drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, and set aside.
  3. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add crumbled tempeh and chopped bell pepper; sauté for 2-3 minutes.
  4. Sprinkle with Italian herbs and stir to combine.
  5. If using, add white wine and let it simmer for 1 minute.
  6. Add sliced mushrooms and minced garlic. Cook until mushrooms are tender (about 5 minutes), stirring occasionally. Do not overcook.
  7. Remove from heat and stir in marinara sauce.
  8. In a large bowl, gently combine the cooked pasta, sauce mixture, and mozzarella cheese.
  9. Pour the pasta mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  10. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley evenly over the top.
  11. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until heated through and cheese is melted and bubbly. Cover with foil if the cheese starts to brown too quickly.
  12. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
