You Haven't Had Baked Ziti Until You Try This | Delicious Baked Ziti Recipe

[@jamecaluckett4281]

I watch , I shop, I cook and simmer (40min) I bake it. My daughter looking in the oven ready👀.......its done, it rest, we tasted it and the flavors 🍴fork drop approval...Your recipes never disappoint❤

[@lashawanbrooks]

My goodness!!! I just made it today and ate it…. How my kids would say it was Bussin Bussin!!! My son isn’t a ziti fan however he tolerated it!! He gave it a compliment. Thank you for sharing!!! Definitely will do this this one again and again!!

[@beautybard]

I JUST made this and holy hell it's bomb. My partner isn't much into super cheesy things but she even says it's a home run. I opted for both hamburger and hot Italian sausage and I 10/10 recommend

[@sherrywilliams409]

All of your recipes look amazing! It’s food just like I like it! Your explanations of your recipes make it easy to follow. I love to watch you work in the kitchen! I don’t think there is anything that you cook that I wouldn’t like! Keep doing what you do and I’ll keep watching your videos, starving until I finally decide to cook! My husband of 39 years died with brain cancer two years ago and I kinda lost my desire to cook. Here’s hoping I get that desire again! Sending a cooks love!

[@MrMakeItHappen]

Thank you for your kind words Sherry! I'm honored to be that spark that gets you back to doing things you once loved. It's never too late (:

Yes! Thank you!

He does sound funny when he says this, but truly not a long time, but a good time watching his video and trying his cooking techniques. I also add my own spin. In both ways, I create a masterpiece. He has killer tasting and looking recipes. Kudos young man for sharing your efforts.

[@user-bv6wf4go1x]

I thought I knew how to make Baked Ziti but this is definitely a level up. This dish may be a little rich for the “golden girls” and me in our house but we’re gonna try it at least once.

[@sincere248]

I have made this recipe 3x already. My husband loves it! He requests it all the time. I look forward to watching more of your videos and trying more of your recipes.

[@girlgonewisej]

Made this today for lunch. My husband and My mom-in- law loved it. It was sooo good. That boursin cheese is a game changer! Thank you for sharing an awesome recipe(I've made several of your recipes they always come out scrumptious, like Fine dining restaurant quality)

[@KWicksable]

That is by far the best baked ziti recipe I have ever seen, this is the meal that I will make when I have people over.

[@Niźhonibarbercuts]

This recipe is bomb. If you do freeze it or have leftovers make extra sauce because it can be dry when you reheat it.

[@jeanarmstrong1422]

This was amazing. Baked ziti was the best - served a group of ladies and everyone loved it. Even my husband loved this dish and he has tried baked ziti in the past which he hated. So this was a success and will make again and again.

[@elenaflores7523]

I made this today for the first time and it’s a keeper meal. I used a different Boursin cheese which is a green box because I didn’t have the one mentioned in the recipe.

[@joyceferreira918]

I love your videos! The format of your videos are easy to follow and I love your “sayings” - “say it with me - looking good!” Please continue to make amazing dishes and videos. Honestly I left the food channel because there are so few true cooking episodes left. Some of us just want to learn a recipe not watch a competition! Keep it up! Thank you!

[@Godslight1970s]

I keep coming back bc I've made it several times and its extremely delicious. By now I should know this recipe by heart 😁

[@jasonbernard827]

Ever since the amazing Cajun salmon with creole cream sauce I have watched all your videos. Very helpful tips here as well...I had always wondered why people said to grate their own cheese vice buy store bought...you finally solved that riddle for me. Thanks for the great content and great information, keep up the fantastic work!

[@MrMakeItHappen]

Thanks so much!! I appreciate it!

[@eleanorpitt8190]

I used this recipe for a community event and I made 2 large pans……EVERYONE LOVED this delicious recipe 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 NOTHING WAS LEFT. People wanted to know who made that awesome Baked Ziti ….

[@randychadwick3776]

I guess folks don't come back to these recipes too much. I watched this several times cause I'm doing a bunch of Italian food tomorrow. I picked up the Boursin cheese today and the sour cream. Always used a ricotta mixture but not with the sour cream and Boursin. Really looking forward to this ziti meat sauce. Thanks, Bro

[@reneep4688]

I came back to it just to compare what he did differently from the old to the new.

[@randychadwick3776]

@@reneep4688 My ziti was a super hit at the house warming party. That sour cream and Boursin added in with the ricotta mixture set the whole thing off. I'll never make it any other way, plus, I'll use for my lasagna and eggplant parm as well.

I am new to your site. I lived in Italy for a couple years and I love pasta of any kind. I have never found a recipe for baked ziti that I liked. Cannot wait to try this! I'm no chef but with your explaination and clear directions, how can I go wrong?

[@MrMakeItHappen]

Hope you enjoy

[@arlenerodriguez4314]

OOOMMMGGG!! When your ziti came out of the oven it was, in a word, "GORGEOUS"!! I am going to make your recipe today. Just need to pick up a few ingredients. The Boursin cream cheese in particular. I'm so sure it makes a big difference in the ricotta mix. Your ziti it so saucy and cheesy, which is what makes any ziti, spaghetti or lasagna dish so very DEEE-LICIOUS!! You never ever disappoint. Thanks loads for sharing with us your FABULOUS recipes. Arlene

[@jodistaton392]

Lookin good!!! I haven’t had the pleasure yet to try that Boursin, Basil and Chive cheese, but I will now, because I am so going to make this!!! Thank you!!!

Made the Ziti last night. 3 1/2 hours later and a destroyed kitchen… my family loved it!! I used more pots, pans and cooking/ prep gadgets than I ever had. The wife said..” wow!! you got a lot going on here” Oh ya… I drank the whole bottle of wine , besides what went into the sauce. 🍷 Next time I will make the sauce first, than boil the ziti, than make up the cheese spread . My ziti casserole weighed in around 10 lbs. good stuff!!!
