Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and onions and saute until starting to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the ground beef and sausage and cook until browned. Drain off almost all of the fat, leaving a bit behind for flavor and moisture. Add the tomato sauce, tomatoes, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes and some salt and pepper. Stir, bring to a simmer and simmer for 25 to 30 minutes. Remove 3 to 4 cups of the cooked sauce to a bowl to cool down.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add some salt. Cook the ziti until not quite al dente.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a bowl, mix 2 cups of the grated mozzarella, the ricotta, Parmesan, parsley, eggs and some salt and pepper. Stir together just a couple of times (do not mix completely).
- Drain the pasta and rinse under cool water to stop the cooking and cool it down. Pour it into the bowl with the cheese mixture and toss to slightly combine (there should still be large lumps). Add the cooled reserved meat sauce and toss to combine.
- Add half the coated pasta to a large casserole dish or lasagna dish. Spoon half of the remaining sauce over the top, then top with half the remaining mozzarella. Repeat with another layer of the coated pasta and the remaining sauce and mozzarella.
- Bake until bubbling, about 20 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before sprinkling with chopped parsley to serve.

Steps:
- Prepare the ziti as directed. Reserve 1/4 cup of the pasta water before draining the pasta.
- While the pasta is cooking, slit and remove the casings from the sausage links. Mash up the meat and place on a frying pan with a drizzle of olive oil.
- Brown the sausage meat, being careful to stir and turn the meat to make sure it is no longer pink inside. While meat is cooking, season with salt and pepper (to taste). Add 1/2 tsp of the cayenne and 1 tbsp of the crushed red pepper, too.
- When the meat is almost browned, add the minced garlic. Stir for about 1 minute and then turn off the heat so the garlic doesn't burn.
- When the pasta is cooked, drain and set aside in a colander. In the same pasta pot (with the reserved water), add the ricotta, half of the spaghetti sauce and half of the parmesan cheese. Stir until creamy.
- Add the remaining cayenne and crushed red pepper and italian seasoning to the sauce mixture.
- Add the meat to the ricotta/sauce mixture.
- Add the pasta into the sauce/meat mixture.
- Grease a casserole pan lightly with olive oil.
- Place an even layer of the pasta mixture, only using half of it.
- Place half of the mozzarella and half of the remainder spaghetti sauce on top of the pasta layer. Sprinkle with some parmesan, if desired.
- Place the second half of the pasta mixture on top of the first. Put the rest of the mozarella, spaghetti sauce and parmesan cheese on top.
- Sprinkle the top with the remaining crushed red pepper.
- Cover casserole pan with foil and bake for 35-40 minutes at 350 degrees. Cheese should be melted and sauce should be a bit bubbly.

SPICY PORK BAKED ZITI WITH RAGU
I found this recipe on Bon Appetit. I have made it a few times now and love it. Braised pork shoulder, spicy Italian sausage, and pancetta enrich the tomato sauce. Dried crushed red pepper kicks up the heat. Its so good.
