Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
-
In one large oven safe skillet or pan, heat up a dash of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once fully heated, brown ground beef.
-
Add in garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes
-
Then stir in tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, and Italian seasoning.
-
Reduce heat and let simmer for 10 minutes.
-
Pour in water and Ziti and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover and reduce to a low boil/simmer for 15 or so minutes or until Ziti is fully cooked and tender.
-
Stir in heavy cream, grated Parmesan and salt and pepper to taste. Top with Mozzarella and place in oven for 10-15 minutes.
-
*Optional - if you would like to brown the cheese more, turn your broiler on high for 30 seconds to a minute. Don't take your eyes off your dish as the cheese will brown quickly and burn if you aren't paying attention!

Enjoy!
