Pasta Bake!

Veggie Pasta Bake

Don't overthink food prep!! Here is a quick recipe I threw together without much planning at all.

Note: I actually cut up/cooked the 'parts' the day before then mixed and baked the day of

1. Cut up broccoli and steamed (1 head)

2. Cut up eggplant and steamed (1 medium)

3. Sauteed (non stick, no butter/oil) 2 onions and 1 red pepper

4. Cooked elbow macaroni (I used about 3 cups for the recipe, the rest will be eaten by my son and husband over the course of the week)

5. 3 Small Containers of Ricotta (part skim)

6. Grandmas Sauce ( - mainly veggies (about 2 cups worth)

7. 18 small mozzarella balls cut in half

Mix all but mozzarella balls together, put in a large casserole dish, top with the mozzarella balls and bake at 350 about 35 minutes!

SO GOOD. This made 6 servings each with a serving of protein, carbs, healthy fats and a couple servings of veggies!
