Gabers Baked Penne

1 lb pork sausage (or ground beef/turkey for something lighter)
1 large chopped white onion
2-3 minced garlic cloves
1 jar of your favorite tomato sauce (about 28 oz.)
1 c. grated Parmesan cheese - split into 1/2 cups
3 Tbsp Butter
1 package (8oz.) of Shredded Mozzarella cheese
1 container (24 oz.) of Ricotta cheese
1 box (1lb) Penne or Spaghetti

Preheat oven 375. Boil Penne. As pasta is cooking, brown sausage in a large skillet. Drain and remove. Wipe skillet with paper towel to get rid of excess grease. Sautee onion and garlic until tender. Add tomato sauce and sausage in skillet. Heat until bubbly. Add any extra seasonings to meat sauce mixture (garlic salt, basil, oregano, sugar, pepper, etc) if desired.

When pasta is ready, drain and add back into pot. Add butter and 1/2 c. grated Parmesan. Toss. Place in 13X9 pan. Spread Ricotta on top of pasta. Spoon meat as next layer into pan. Top with Mozzarella and remaining Parmesan cheese.

Bake for 30 minutes. If top stars becoming brown, cover with foil. Let stand 10 minutes and then enjoy!
