Cooking Light Recipe

Ingredients
1 lb uncooked ziti or tube-shaped pasta
1 lb turkey Italian sausage links
1 cup chopped onion
2 garlic cloves, mince
1 tbs. tomato paste
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 (14.5 oz) cans petite-dice tomatoes, undrained
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup grated fresh Parmesan cheese

Directions
Preheat oven to 350

Cook pasta according to package directions, drain and set aside.

Remove casing from sausage and cook sausage, onion and garlic in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until browned, stirring to crumble. Add the tomato paste, salt, pepper and diced tomatoes. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Combine pasta, sausage mixture and basil. Place half of the pasta mixture in a 4-quart casserole dish coated with cooking spray. Top with half (about 1/2 cup) Mozzarella and Parmesan. Repeat layers. Bake at 350 for 25 minutes or until bubbly. Enjoy!
