I had ricotta cheese in the fridge that I needed to use and this was a great recipe to try. On hand I had Hunt's four cheese spaghetti sauce, parmesan blend, and italian blend shredded cheese that I used. Mixed all the cheese together and melted in the microwave for a few minutes. Topped the ziti and had a wonderful lunch. Made and reviewed for ZWT 4.

Been having spaghetti that way for a long time!! ;) - Love the added cheese - used low-fat mozzarella and fresh parmesan cheese. Used Bev's recipe #26217. Made for 123 Tag. Thanks iewe!

My kids had an early dismissal from school today so before leaving for work, I cooked up the noodles and put them in spaghetti sauce. They added mozzarella and parmesan when they got home, put it in the microwave for a few minutes to heat it up. They had a quick lunch! We didn't use the ricotta as we don't care for it.

Great supper tonight! I added a tablespoon of ricotta, sprinkled on some Mexican cheese blend and then some Parmesan. Put in the microwave for 2 mins. to melt cheese and mixed everything up in my bowl when I got ready to eat, and it was really good. I was a little skeptical of the ricotta, but decided to try it anyway, and I am glad I did. It was good! Made for Newest Zaar Stars Tag Game. Linda
