About Baked ziti
Baked Ziti is a classic Italian-American pasta dish that combines ziti noodles, rich tomato sauce, and a blend of cheeses, including ricotta, mozzarella, and Parmesan, for a creamy and comforting casserole. Often enhanced with ground beef or Italian sausage, it is layered and baked to golden perfection, creating a hearty meal enjoyed by families and at gatherings. Originating from Italy, this dish reflects the cuisine’s love for simple, satisfying flavors. Nutritionally, baked ziti provides protein from the cheese and meat, as well as energy-boosting carbohydrates from the pasta. However, it can be high in calories, fat, and sodium due to the cheese and processed meats. Healthier versions can be made with whole-wheat pasta, lower-fat cheeses, and vegetables like spinach or zucchini, offering fiber and nutrients. Despite its indulgent nature, baked ziti delivers comfort and flavor, making it a beloved dish for many.
