Step 1
Heat the oven to 425°F. While the oven is heating, place a 13x9x2-inch baking dish onto a rimmed baking sheet.
Step 2
Stir the sauce, water, half the mozzarella cheese, the ricotta and half the Parmesan cheese in the baking dish. Stir in the uncooked ziti, making sure it's submerged in the sauce mixture (the dish will be very full, so you'll need to stir carefully). Cover tightly with aluminum foil.
Step 3
Bake for 50 minutes or until the ziti is tender. Uncover and stir the ziti mixture. Top with the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
Step 4
Bake, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until the cheeses are melted.
