{Recipe} Baked Ziti with Turkey Sausage

I think I am going to make this a weekly series.  Would you guys like that?  

I have gotten the cooking bug again (which is a great thing especially on WW).  

I cooked this Sunday night and it was fabulous.  I thought it was really strange to have peas in a baked ziti, but it was still so good.  I highly recommend making this dish because you get turkey, cheesy-goodness, and pasta.  I mean, how can you say no to that?

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Position the rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Crumble the sausage meat into a large saucepan and brown over medium heat, stirring often, about 4 minutes.
  • Drain off any fat, then add the onion and bell pepper. Cook, stirring often, until softened, about 3 minutes.
  • Stir in the tomatoes, peas, tomato paste, oregano, basil, thyme, fennel seeds, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat and cook uncovered 5 minutes, stirring often.
  • Stir in the cooked pasta and half the cheese. Spread evenly into a 9- X 13-inch baking pan. Top evenly with the remaining cheese.
  • Bake until the cheese has melted and the casserole is bubbling, about 20 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes at room temperature before slicing into 8 pieces. Yields 1 piece per serving.
