Cooking Instructions
- 1
While you boil water and cook your pasta, Put the onion and bell pepper into a deep skillet with olive oil, over medium heat for 3-4 min. Add mushrooms and cook until vegetables are soft.(another 3-4 min)
- 2
Take out vegetables, put in minced garlic cook for 1 min, and brown beef and sausage in the same skillet adding the pepperoni when the beef and sausage are almost brown. Drain the grease.
- 3
Add vegetables back to the skillet along with the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, wine, oregano, basil, and garlic powder. Stir together and bring to a simmer. (If sauce is too thick add a little of the water from boiling the noodles, or a bit more wine.)
- 4
Combine sauce with noodles, mix well, pour half into a large baking dish and cover with mozzarella cheese. Pour other half on top and cover with cheese blend. (I use provolone, fontina, parmesan and romano), bake for 25-30 minutes at 375° or until cheese is golden brown on top.

Serve with grated Parmesan. This dish is even better the next day!

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.

This is a foolproof recipe for hearty, homestyle baked ziti that tastes great whether you eat it straight out of the oven or reheated.As with any recipe, customize to your tastes. For example, you can mix in pepperoni to add a nice flavor. I use homemade sauce (I have a recipe for that too ☺️), but you can use your favorite brand.Also, this is a large pan, so you can always halve the recipe.

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.

Awesome combo of my 2 fave types of pasta! The tomato paste serves to thicken the marinara sauce a bit, but feel free to use a chunky pasta sauce instead. :-) pyrolace -
