Pesto Lasagne, I mean Stuffed Ziti, I mean Penne

Tuesday January 15

We still had half a tub of ricotta and making sheet lasagna noodles seemed too repetitious (read: we were feeling lazy). The effect we were aiming at was baked ziti, but without the pain of stuffing them. Instead of lasagna, we jut boiled up a mess o' penne, mixed them in the ricotta and about a cup or even more of pesto. Covered it with 'Merkin mozzarella (kind of dry, but in fact, that worked out well). It came out beautifully: a rich cheesy mess somewhere between baked ziti, basil lasagna, koogle, and heaven.
