Here is how you make Aaron's Baked Ziti:

Cook pasta to slightly firmer than al dente texture (pasta will continue to cook in oven). Reserve about 1/4c. pasta water after draining cooked pasta. Sautee chopped vegetables in some olive oil spray over med-hi heat in a skillet until onions are just tender. Mix drained penne, vegetables, sauce and ricotta cheese in a large bowl until coated and mixed. Spray an 8x8 glass or Corningware baking dish with a light spray of olive oil cooking spray. Pour pasta mixture into dish, spreading out evenly. Pour a little of the pasta water over the mixture to maintain moisture. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded mozzarella over the top, garnishing with a sprinkle of your favorite Italian Seasoning if desired. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 min or until cheese is just browned and edges are bubbling. Number of Servings: 5Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user ENTROPYBABY.
