So i went on a recipe search with ingredients we already had on hand. It was storming out & i was not going to Wal-Mart! It took forever, because everything called for something I didn't have. But i finally found this recipe at Picky Palate. Picky Palate has some AMAZING looking recipes, by the way! I can't wait to try more of them!!
This is my version of Jenny's Cheesy Stuffed Baked Ziti. I would have done her version, but again, I was only using what I already had on hand. Check out hers & try it! I'm willing to bet it's even more amazing!!But this one did turn out delicious!!
