Three words: Three. Ingredient. Dinner. DaVinci’s 100% durum wheat semolina Wagon Wheels, blended with rich marinara sauce and fresh mozzarella cheese, take only 5 minutes to prepare for a busy after-school night.
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a 9 x 13-inch baking dish (or two 8-inch square baking dishes) with cooking spray.
2. In the prepared dish (or in a separate bowl), stir together dry (uncooked) pasta, marinara sauce, water, salt and basil (if using). Cover tightly with foil.
3. Bake (covered) for 25 minutes.
4. Remove dish from oven, take off cover, and give the pasta a stir. At this point it should be al dente.
5. Sprinkle the grated mozzarella cheese over the top of the casserole. Return the dish to the oven (uncovered) for an additional 5-10 minutes -- or just until the cheese is melted and the pasta is tender.
6. Garnish with optional grated Parmesan cheese and fresh herbs, if desired.
