Baked Ziti with Chicken Meatballs



Ingredients:
1 box dry ziti noodles
2 jars pasta sauce
Olive oil
Bell Pepper, diced
Onion, diced
Garlic cloves, diced
2 bags of mozzarella cheese
1 bag of shredded parmesan cheese
Meatballs


Directions:
Boil a box of ziti in salted water, drain.
In a sauce pan add olive oil, sautee diced onions and bell pepper until soft, then add minced garlic.  Stir until fragrant (after about 1-2 minutes).  Add in 2 jars of pasta sauce of your choice.  We like one that has mushrooms.  
Bake meatballs in oven per package recommendations.  
Cut into bite size pieces.  These ended up being cut in quarters.
Mix the cooked pasta with the sauce and cut meatballs.
Put a layer of the pasta in an oven safe skillet.
Then add a layer of mozzarella cheese and shredded parmesan.
Add a second layer of pasta and a final layer of cheeses.
Bake in t425 degree oven for at least 30 minutes.

Serve with garlic bread, salad, roasted veggies etc!
