Baked Vegetable Ziti

My newest addiction of Pinterest lead me to this fabulous recipe on another food blog, The Rantings of an Amateur Chef.  I must say if you have not checked out Pinterest yet, I recommend that you do.  Although, do not look at it before going to bed because in addition to losing track of time and staying up way past your bed time, you will then also be very hungry!  And with this dish, I have stuck to my 'one all veggie meal' once a week for two weeks now!  And even with pasta in it, it is only 301 calories for 1 1/2 cups!  For recipe you will need the following:
     4 ounces of uncooked ziti
     1 tbsp of olive oil
     2 cups of chopped yellow squash
     1 cup of chopped zucchini
     1/2 cup of chopped onion
     2 cups of chopped tomatoes
     2 garlic gloves, minced
     1 cup of shredded part-skim mozzarella
        cheese, divided
     1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese
     2 tbsp of fresh chopped basil
     2 tbsp of fresh chopped oregano
     3/4 tsp of salt, divided
     1/8 tsp of crushed red pepper
     1/4 cup of part-skim ricotta cheese
     1 large egg, beaten

Cook the pasta according to the directions on the box.  Meanwhile, heat a large skillet on medium-high heat.  Add oil to the pan, then saute squash, zucchini, and onion for 5 minutes.

    



Add tomato and garlic; saute for 3 minutes.  Remove from the heat.

Stir in pasta, 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese, 1/2 cup of Parmesan, herbs, 1/2 tsp of salt, and red pepper.

Combine the ricotta, remaining salt, and egg.  Mix until well combined.  Stir into the pasta mixture.

Spoon pasta mixture into an 8 inch glass baking dish coated with baking spray.  Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese (you will see that I ran out of mozzarella & had to use another kind).  Bake at 400 for 15 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and brown.
