Pizza Baked Ziti

Ingredients

• 1 box ziti
• 1 jar spaghetti sauce
• 1⁄4 cup olive oil
• 1 tbsp garlic, chopped
• 4 cup shredded Italian cheese blend, divided
• 1 package mini pepperoni

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place ziti in a 9 x 13 inch baking dish. Evenly cover pasta with spaghetti sauce. Fill the 24 ounce spaghetti sauce jar twice with water and pour the water over the ziti. Stir in 2 cups cheese. Bake for 25 minutes.
2. Remove the dish from the oven, stir pasta, and sprinkle with remaining 2 cups cheese. Place pepperoni on top of the cheese. Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, just until the cheese begins to bubble and pasta is tender. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
