I took some liberties with the traditional ziti, but I promise you’ll be glad I did.
It’s ziti layered with chili rather than the traditional tomato and meat sauce. Yup, why not?
Okay, actually, I ziti’d my chili because I needed something to spice up the classic for the little guys, who easily get bored of the same rotation. Beyond that, I also needed a new dish for this year’s Super Bowl.
I made this for the family, then shared it with our neighbors. I didn’t tell anyone that I swapped out the traditional beef for Lightlife’s Smart Ground Original Ground Meats, a sustainable plant-protein, until they were half way through. It didn’t change anyone’s pace.
So guess what is going to appear alongside some of my favorite Super Bowl food? You’re looking at it.
