My cousin created this recipe.

#CA2025 I can always stretch a pound of meat with pasta and have enough for unexpected visitors. If you are happy with the spice in your Marinara leave out the spices listed. If you don't have ziti pasta use what you have. If you don't have sausage use ground beef or shredded chicken.

Creamy, saucy goodness.

Got this recipe off of a website but changed it a little from the original since i don't like parmesan. Really good recipe but i prefer it better with ground beef that i've seasoned myself over the italian sausage the recipe called for.

Everyone here loves meat. They want every sauce so full of meat, which I really enjoy eating it that way. Once every now and then I want to taste every layer, every flavor, and every spice. I want to taste mozzarella and tastes Swiss cheese when it is there and everything else.

This is one of my families favorite meals. It seems like a lot of steps, but it all comes together fairly easily. I've tweaked this recipe from what I originally posted, because of changing up the way we eat, but it's still a fairly uncomplicated, from scratch recipe. This recipe makes alot, so you could cut the recipe in half for a smaller serving size...we usually just make the big batch so we have leftovers to snack on or have for lunch in upcoming days. You could also prepare it into two smaller pans, then freeze one and bake one.
