A traditional Sunday ziti meets your favorite pizza place in one dish! This Pizzeria Bake packs in all your favorite toppings, such as beefy mushrooms, savory and sweet Italian sausage, and succulent Canadian bacon, with a rich, homemade tomato sauce and tender ziti. A tangy ricotta layer and a melty mozzarella topping make the Pizzeria Bake just as cheesy as a pizza pie! Forget the cardboard box and grab a casserole dish instead.
