Ingredients :
- 12 oz box of ziti
- 1/2 pound ground beef
- 1/2 pound ground mild country sausage
- 20-30 thin slices of pepperoni
- 6-8 oz mushrooms
- 1 medium onion diced
- 2 Bell peppers diced
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 large can crushed tomatoes
- 1/4 cup red wine (cooking wine will work, I use a red from a local winery)
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon basil
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 2 cups mozzarella
- 2 cups Italian cheese blend
Method :
- While you boil water and cook your pasta, dice the onion, and peppers. Put these into a deep skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and cook until vegetables are soft.
- Take out vegetables, put in minced garlic, and brown beef and sausage in the same skillet adding the pepperoni a few pieces at a time, drain the grease. (Sliced pepperoni works for this recipe, but small thick chunks of pepperoni are easier to work with and distribute more evenly when mixed into the pasta.)
- Add vegetables back to the skillet along with the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, basil, and garlic powder. Stir together and bring to a simmer. (If sauce is too thick add a little of the water from boiling the noodles.)
- Combine sauce with noodles, mix well, pour half into a large baking dish and cover with mozzarella cheese. Pour other half on top and cover with cheese blend. (I use provolone, fontina, parmesan and romano), bake for 25-30 minutes at 375° or until cheese is golden brown on top.
- Serve with grated Parmesan. This dish is even better the next day!
