Baked Ziti is seriously one of my all time favorite baked pasta dishes. This pasta casserole is honestly super easy to make, affordable, and a great dinner idea whenever you’re in a rush or want something that will be done quickly. This is also a great last minute holiday dish idea and a great meatless dinner recipe. My Grandma Kay taught me how to make this delicious pasta dish. In our family, we actually enjoy our baked ziti with no meat which makes this a great baked ziti vegetarian option. I hope you enjoy and don’t forget to join the Chef Zee Family!
