It's a Pasta Party!

Everyone has their favorite comfort food. Mine is pasta. One day I was scrolling on Pinterest and found what turned out to be one of the easiest and most delicious recipes I have ever made. Now I am going to share my version of it with you!

You can find the original recipe here: Two Timin' Pasta



Cheesy Brocoli Ziti
1 Box of whole wheat Penne or Ziti pasta
1 15oz jar of light Alfredo sauce
1 24oz jar of tomato sauce (I use Marinara)
3 cups of part-skim Mozzarella cheese
1 cups of Parmesan cheese
3 cups steamed broccoli (check out the freezer section for steamer bags)

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Cook pasta according to box and drain
  • Cook broccoli according to package directions
  • In a large bowl, mix together pasta, broccoli, Alfredo sauce, tomato sauce and 2 cups of Mozzarella cheese
  • Pour mixture into tray and bake for 10-15 minutes or until it starts to get bubbly
  • Take out of oven and top with remaining Mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese
  • Bake for another 5 minutes or until cheese is melted
  • Serve with a salad and warm garlic bread for the perfect meal.
  • Enjoy!
