Baked Ziti With Mushrooms And Cheese Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Californiacook / All my dishes 5 months, 3 weeks ago This dish is similar to one I often order at a favorite Italian restaurant, but richer with the addition of cheeses & cream.

Ingredients

1 lb mushrooms, sliced

1 garlic clove, peeled, whole

4 Tbl butter

salt and freshly ground black pepper

2 1/2 - 3 cups ziti, uncooked

3 oz Bel Paese cheese, thinly sliced or cubed

1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

3/4 cup heavy cream or half and half

Directions

Saute the mushrooms with the whole garlic clove in 2 tablespoons of the butter over a high heat. Add salt and pepper, lower the heat and cook for 3 minutes. Discard the garlic.

Cook and drain the pasta. Dress with the remaining butter. Butter an ovenproof dish and cover the bottom with a layer of ziti.

Place about a quarter of the mushrooms and the sliced cheese evenly over the pasta and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of Parmesan.

Add another layer of pasta and cover with mushrooms and cheese as before. Repeat until you have used all the ingredients, finishing with a layer of sliced cheeses.

Pour over the cream, sprinkle with salt and pepper and bake, covered with foil, in a preheated oven at 400 F. for 10 minutes.

Bake uncovered another 10 minutes, or until a light crust has formed on the top. Remove from oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
