Baked Ziti

NEED:
2 lb. ground beef
1 large onion, chopped
1 jar (4 lb. 3 oz.)Mushroom Italian Sauce
1 box (16 oz.) tube-shaped pasta (Ziti), cooked and drained
3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Cook beef and onion in sauce pot until browned. Pour off fat.
Stir in pasta sauce, Ziti and 2 cups mozzarella cheese. Spoon into 2 SPRAYED (12 1/2"x8 1/2"x2") pans. Top with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan.
Oven at 350°F. Bake for 30 min. or until hot.

Notes: This freezes very well.
To freeze, prepare Ziti but do not bake. Cover with foil and freeze. Bake frozen Ziti, uncovered, at 350°F. for 1 hr. or until hot. Or refrigerate 24 hr. to thaw. Bake thawed Ziti, uncovered, at 350°F. for 45 min. or until hot
