My experience with baked ziti is that it tends to be a dry dish. This, however, was very creamy and packed with flavor! At first, I thought it was going to be a little too cinnamony, but it turned out well with the pasta mixture. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and foil, then store in the freezer. To reheat, remove the plastic wrap and replace the foil.
