This photo might not look the best because this was after several servings were removed.  Better ones to follow!!

Baked Ziti


16 oz. pkg. ziti (or rigatoni, etc.), cooked & drained
16 oz. shredded mozzarella cheese
2 c. cottage cheese
approx. 45 oz. jar spaghetti sauce (I like Prego)
1 tsp. oregano
salt & pepper
1 lb. ground beef, cooked & drained

In a very large bowl - combine the drained ziti with half of the cheese.  Then, add the remaining ingredients and mix well.  Place in a 9 x 13 pan.  Top with the remaining cheese.  Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.

See how easy!!!!

Goes great with bread sticks (and a salad, too) --

Lucy is not taking too kindly to all the storms we have had lately.  She is hiding even if it just starts to rain!!  I think she wants to be in her hiding place - just in case!!!  But, really - do you call that hiding???
