Baked Mushroom Penne

• 1/2 cup (about 1/2 ounce) dried porcini mushrooms
• 2 whole sun-dried tomatoes (not packed in oil)
• 1 cup boiling water
• 2 medium onions, chopped
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/2 cup dry red wine or chicken broth
• 2 fresh thyme sprigs
• 1 pound sliced fresh shiitake mushrooms
• 1 can (28 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1 package (16 ounces) uncooked penne pasta
• 3/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese, divided
• 2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided

1. Place porcini mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes in a small bowl. Cover with boiling water; let stand 5 minutes. Drain, reserving 3/4 cup liquid. Squeeze mushrooms and tomatoes dry; coarsely chop and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, saute onions in oil until tender. Add garlic; cook 2 minutes. Add reserved mushroom liquid, wine, thyme, fresh mushrooms, tomatoes, sugar, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 10-15 minutes or until thickened. Stir in porcini mushroom mixture.
3. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375u0b0. Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup cooking liquid. Toss pasta with the cooking liquid, mushroom mixture and 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese.
4. Place half of pasta mixture in a greased 13x9-in. baking dish; top with half of the mozzarella cheese. Repeat layers. Sprinkle with remaining Parmesan. Cover and bake 15-20 minutes or until heated through.
