Not an entirely complex recipe. Something almost everyone has probably tried at some point in their cooking experience. Cheap, easy, and feeds a ton. Great leftovers.

How To Make baked pasta

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350.

Step 2

Cook pasta of choice (I tend to use rotini) and drain thoroughly once finished.
Step 3

Spray pan and add pasta and sauce (homemade or jar sauce of your choice ... either works) to pan.
Step 4

Mix 1 entire bag of shredded mozzarella into the pasta and sauce.
Step 5

Cover the mix with the second bag of mozzarella cheese (which will ultimately become a top cheese layer to the bake).
Step 6

Bake for 40 minutes. Cover with tin foil for the first 20 minutes and uncover for the remaining 20.
