zippy ziti
(1 rating)
I love ziti pasta. This recipe is delicious on its own; it's also great with meatballs or chicken or shrimp--what trips your taste buds tonight? Your home will smell like a fine Italian restaurant when you are cooking this! What can be better than that! September 14--I made this yesterday, and it is a great summer dish--fresh mushrooms, fresh tomatoes, fresh zucchini, fresh onions--a summer festival of tastes! I added 12 oz. of Italian style meatballs. We served it with fresh cooked corn and a salad. It was GREAT!
