Recipe Notes
Notes
Depending on size of portions.. if you divide into 6 they will be large portions and 6 pts each. serving. If you make 8 servings it’s 4 pts each and they will be on the smaller side. Also, I reserved some of the sauce to put on top of the finished “ziti”. * I used a can of plain tomato sauce but it scanned as above.
