Baked Ziti
1 lb dry ziti pasta
1 onion, chopped
1 lb ground beef
2 (26 oz) jars of tomato sauce
6 oz sliced provolone cheese
6 oz. mozzarella cheese, shredded
2 Tbsp grated parmesan
1 1/2 cup sour cream
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add ziti and cook until al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain.
In a large skillet, brown the onion and ground beef over medium heat. Add sauce and simmer 15 minutes. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9x13 baking dish. Layer as follows: 1/2 of the ziti, provolone cheese, sour cream, 1/2 of the sauce mixture, remaining ziti, mozzarella cheese, remaining sauce mixture. Top with grated parmesan. Bake for 30 minutes or until cheeses are melted.
** I used reduced fat sour cream, which was fine. I also added a layer of fresh spinach leaves on top of the sour cream. And, I think it would be fine to eliminate the ground beef if you don't eat meat, and maybe add some more veggies instead.
