*NOTE - photo above is this recipe below doubled. Feeds about 4-6. If you wish to double the recipe, bake in a 9x13 baking dish.
INGREDIENTS:
-One 16 oz box of Penne Rigate
-One 24oz jar of vodka sauce (I used Little Italy "In the Bronx" vodka sauce from Jewel)
-One 8oz bag of shredded Italian blend cheese
-1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
-Dried parsley (optional)
-1 tbsp olive oil
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Boil large pot of salted water and cook pasta according to package directions until al dente (about 9-10 minutes).
2. Drain pasta and add 1 tbsp of olive oil to prevent sticking. Toss pasta with about half the jar of sauce or slightly more until every piece of pasta is coated. Add in 3/4 bag of Italian blend cheese and stir to combine. Spread a thin layer of sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Pour pasta mixture into baking dish and top with another thin layer of sauce to prevent the noodles from drying out. Top with remaining Italian blend cheese and mozzarella.
3. Bake for 20 minutes until cheese is completely melted and bubbly. Sprinkle with dried parsley.
