- Add tomatoes and tomato paste along with all other sauce ingredients.
- Simmer for as long as you would like, stirring often.
- This sauce can be eaten right away but it is best when simmered slowly.
- Add additional spices to taste.
- I tend to dump cook on this, so I have included basic measurements.
- While sauce is simmering, beat eggs and add Ricotta, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup parsley and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Mix well and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Bring large pot of water to a boil.
- Add a dash of olive oil to prevent sticking and add Campanelle.
- Cook for 9 minutes or until al dente.
- Drain and add to sauce.
- Mix well.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- To prepare bowls, place one layer of pasta/sauce mixture evenly in bottom of your (oven safe) ramekins or serving dishes.
- Next, spread the Ricotta mixture evenly on top of the pasta/sauce.
- Add a layer of mozzarella.
- Add another layer of pasta/sauce and then top with mozzarella and a sprinkling of Parmesan.
- Sprinkle spices such as basil, oregano or paprika on top if youd like.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until cheese is thoroughly melted and turning a bit golden on top.
