You know it's good when the kid goes back for thirds... Made baked ziti with chicken sausage for dinner.

If I open my mouth, will you toss some in? Just the noodle parts, not the chicken

Yes! They're lentil noods.

We love them.

I think Iโ€™m just gonna start copying whatever you cook and stop trying to come up with my own ideas

๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ It's literally why I use CookSmarts. It takes the thinking out of meal planning, it even makes a grocery list for you.

that's a big win~!

Iโ€™d go back too!

It turned out pretty tasty. Kind of hard to screw up noodles and sauce ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

That sounds like a delicious and satisfying meal! It's great that your kid enjoyed it so much that they went back for seconds (or even thirds!). That's always a good sign that you've hit on a recipe that's a winner.

Chicken sausage is a fantastic addition to baked ziti, adding a nice smokiness and flavor contrast to the classic pasta dish. Did you use a specific type of chicken sausage or just whatever was on hand? And how did you find the kid's reaction to the meal - were they enthusiastic about trying it or did they require some convincing?
