Baked ziti was a hit with the kids last night.

Full disclosure: I recently met with a kids dietician to help make the best food choices for the kids and make sure they are getting what they need. Her biggest advice was to have protein at every meal along with a carb and a veg. Pretty simple and something we all know however, I being more mindful about making sure all the kids meals and snacks are being accounted for!

So to sneak that protein in, I added ground meat. I normally don’t cook red meat in my home nor do I mix milk and meat. But this sure was a great success!

🌱Ground beef, cheesy goodness, and noodles. I should of added spinach to add veg but I served it with homemade Cesar salad dressing and Cesar salad 🥗. All the food groups were accounted to makeup a balanced meal:)

Recipe:
Prep Time: 10 minutesCook Time: 45 minutesTotal Time: 55 minutes
Servings: 8 servings

INGREDIENTS
* 1 lb ziti pasta
* 1 lb ground beef
* 1 large onion finely chopped
* 4 garlic cloves minced
* 1 tsp iItalian seasoning
* 1 tsp salt
* ½ tsp ground black pepper
* 32 oz marinara sauce
* 14.5 oz crushed tomatoes
* 16 oz mozzarella cheese, shredded shredded
* 15 oz ricotta cheese
* 1/2 cup parmesan cheese

INSTRUCTIONS
* Preheat the oven to 350°F. 
* Cook the pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
* In a skillet, brown the ground beef with the finely chopped onion on medium heat. Mix and break apart the meat while cooking. 
* Once the meat is cooked add in the minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper and mix until combined.
* Add in the marinara sauce and crushed tomatoes to the meat and bring to a light simmer. Add the pasta into the meat mixture and mix until fully combined.
* In a 9x13 casserole dish add a layer of the pasta mixture and top with half of the ricotta cheese by spreading all over the pasta. Then top with half of the mozzarella cheese and half of the parmesan cheese.  
* Repeat again with second layer of the pasta mixture and cheeses. 
* Cover the baking sheet with foil and bake at 350°F for 20-25 minutes covered. Remove the foil and bake an additional 10-15 minutes uncovered, until the cheese is bubbly. 
* Enjoy.

I will never try to change my kids but let them express who they are and the things they think are weird let them see that’s what makes them unique and amazing!

The days of trying to fit in are over, the ones who stand out are the ones who become the leaders. The ones who aren’t afraid to go against the grain! Those are the cool ones.

The same goes for you mamas. Be yourself unapologetically! Happy Saturday.
