Lasagna Cookbooks

Looking for a good pasta recipe that appeals to most people...?

I am on several meal minstries and trying to come up w/something other than the pasta dish of spag. or lasaga. They family is aready getting a pork dish and a chicken dish on the nights surrounding "my" night, so want to stay away from thise two things. Quite often I make chili for families, but really wanted to bring a pasta dish since the other meals will be heavy on the meat. Lasagna is so overdone, spag. is too simple, but what else is a good dish that would appeal to most people? I have looked in my cookbooks, but nothing is floating my boat. Any ideas?

Baked Ziti
1 pound ziti, cooked and drained
1 pound ricotta, or cottage cheese
½ pound Mozzarella cheese, grated
1 egg
1 jar spaghetti sauce
Parmesan cheese
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 9 x 13" baking dish with non-stick spray.

Mix ziti with cheeses and egg. Pour 1/2 of the sauce in bottom of dish. Top with ziti, then remaining sauce. Sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese. Cover tightly with foil.

Bake 30 - 45 minutes. Let sit 5 - 10 minutes before removing foil and serving.

***NOTE: I make this dish quite a bit, my grandsons love it. For variety, I sometimes add sliced smoked sausage with the ziti mixture. You can also add browned hamburger meat to the sauce.

Pasta Shells
10 ounces frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1 cup Mozzarella cheese, grated
1 cup cottage cheese
1 egg
1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese
16 jumbo pasta shells, cooked and drained
1 jar spaghetti sauce
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix spinach, cheeses, cottage cheese and egg until well blended. Pour about 1/4 of the jar of sauce in bottom of 13 x9" baking dish that has been sprayed with non-stick spray. Fill each shell with heaping tablespoon of cheese mixture and place in pan. Spoon remaining sauce over shells. Cover with foil.

Bake 30 minutes or until heated through.

This recipe can be prepared and frozen, then thawed and cooked later.
