You could make baked ziti but make the pasta al dente, then it can be put in the oven last minute and not be over cooked!.

Eggplant and/or chicken Parmesan can be prepped also, and placed in the oven when needed!.

Anti pasta can be prepared and kept cold ahead of time!.

One of my favorites is Rotini with Italian dressing!. After the rotini (i like the 3 color ones it just makes it look nicer) has been cooked drain and put in bowl or zip lock bag then add Italian dressing!. I also add about 1-2 tbs of Ms!. Dash's Tomato and Basil seasoning, and Parmesan cheese!. You could also add olives, pepperoni for flavoring too!

This peppery, arugula-topped three-cheese pizza is served at Pizza Bianco in Scottsdale, Arizona!. Their recipe calls for 4 oz thinly sliced prosciutto on the top at the very end, but this vegetarian version is so very good - you won't miss the meat!. The garlic paste is the most important ingredient; you can buy it pre-made but your house will smell great if you make your own (See Roasted Garlic Paste)!.
