Baked Ziti is the ultimate comfort food—creamy, cheesy, and absolutely dreamy! This recipe is a game-changer for weeknight dinners or gatherings. The best part? It’s ridiculously easy to make and comes out looking (and tasting) like a pro cooked it.

Ingredients
▢12 ounces ziti pasta
▢1 medium sweet onion, diced
▢4-6 garlic cloves, pressed
▢3 cups cherry tomatoes
▢2 tablespoons olive oil
▢1 teaspoon sea salt
▢1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
▢2/3 cup ricotta cheese
▢1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400F.
In a baking dish, toss the 1 medium sweet onion (diced), 4-6 garlic cloves, 3 cups cherry tomatoes, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and seasonings (1 teaspoon sea salt and 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning). You may also add some black pepper at this point if you like.

Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until tomatoes burst. Remove from the oven and let it slightly cool. Transfer to a food processor together with the 2/3 cup ricotta cheese and blend until smooth.
While the tomatoes are roasting, cook the 12 ounces ziti pasta in salted water according to package directions.
To assemble the dish, toss the cooked ziti and ricotta sauce in a baking dish and sprinkle with 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese.
Bake for 15 minutes, until the cheese is melted.
