Looking for a recipe idea that’s sure to please the entire family, keep well for leftovers and is easy to make? Try this delicious meal: the chicken parmesan baked ziti.

While I love to cook, lately it’s been a game trying to come up with new and unique recipes. Let’s just say, working from home has tested my imagination when it comes to cooking every night. I’ve lapped through my tried and true recipes in the last few months about two times over, so I’ve begun adding new recipes to my repertoire.

And lately, one of the biggest tenants of choosing a recipe is the ability for it to have leftovers for later! And if I have most of the ingredients already in my pantry, that’s even a bigger plus!

For me, multiple grocery store trips per week are something I hope to avoid. Which is why I love shopping at my neighborhood Randalls, because I know they’ll have everything I need, at great prices. The in-house Signature Brands, like Signature SELECT™, are a go-to of mine. The items are high-quality, fresh, affordable and can often be used for a variety of different recipes.

Enter the chicken parmesan baked ziti. It’s a simple dinner idea that can be thrown together all at once or prepped separately, baked and reheated for later. I’m all about making the best use of my time, and this recipe does just that!

To keep things simple, I always grab a Signature Select whole rotisserie hot chicken on my shopping trips. I love that it’s ready to heat and eat, and can be used in a variety of ways throughout the week – in the baked ziti, shredded on top of salads or sliced for sandwiches.

Yes, this chicken parmesan baked ziti calls for ziti noodles, but you could totally swap the noodles out for just about shaped noodle you have on-hand. Works with penne, rigatoni or bowtie pasta too. You simply just want a pasta that’ll hold its shape when layered in the baking dish.

Lately, one of my go-to items to grab on a grocery trip is bread. Since we’re doing almost all our meals at home (minus the occasional takeout), we’re going through bread much quicker. Whether it’s for sandwiches, a morning slice of toast or weekend French toast brunch, I’ve been grabbing two loaves of bread on my grocery runs. One to keep fresh and on hand, and the other to freeze and thaw for later.

What I love most about the chicken parmesan baked ziti recipe, is the cubed bits of fresh Signature Select Italian bread sprinkled throughout. Baked on site, the day I purchased my loaf, it’s fresh and oh so tasty! The perfect bit of crunch to the baked ziti.
