This is the best baked ziti I have ever tried...and I have tried a lot. This is from the March 2009 issue of Cook's Illustrated and has been thoroughly tested by them.
The smartest thing you can do with this low-cal, low-fat meal is eat it with the people you love. This better-for-you ziti is still filled with cheesy goodness.
A Southwestern cousin of mom's chicken soup, this one has a little more kick with a crispy topping. And, like its best-loved relative, it'll make you feel good all over.
Serve omelets to hungry brunch-seekers without flipping (out) over a hot stove. The oven does the work while bacon, cheese and tomato salsa add the flavor.
This is my homemade try at the quot;Penne Rosaquot; they serve at Noodles and Co. Its not exactly the same, but it IS almost as yummy! If you do not like spicy pastas, leave out the red pepper flakes or add more if you like a little kick!
