Baked Ziti

I made this for dinner co-op last week. It was delicious and made A TON!

1 pound dry ziti pasta
1 pound lean ground beef (I use 85/15)
2 jars spaghetti sauce -one jar of Prego Meat flavored,
one jar of Prego tomato, onion & garlic flavored
1 small tub of ricotta cheese
12 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add ziti pasta, and cook about 10 minutes until tender then drain. In a large skillet, cook ground beef over medium heat. Drain grease. Add spaghetti sauce, and simmer 15 minutes. Use a 9x13 inch baking pan. Layer as follows: 6 Tb of sauce mixture, thin layer of shredded mozzarella cheese, 1/2 of the ziti, entire tub of ricotta cheese spread across, 1/2 remaining sauce mixture, remaining ziti, remaining sauce mixture, a thick layer of shredded mozzarella cheese. Top with grated Parmesan cheese.
Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until cheese is melted.
