Baked Cheesy Veggie Pasta Casserole

What a delight this dish is!  It's also very quick (under 30 minutes).  I served ours with some garlic bread and it was a wonderful combination.  Enjoy!
Ingredients:
-1 lb pasta (any shape you like; I used bow ties)
-2 small zucchinis or 1 medium, chopped
-8 oz baby bella mushrooms, chopped
-1 (24 oz) jar pasta sauce
-1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
-1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese, divided
-1 tsp dried oregano
-1 tsp dried basil leaves
Directions:
Preheat broiler on high.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil.  Add the pasta and cook for 10 minutes.  Add the chopped zucchini and mushrooms and boil for 2 more minutes.  Drain. 
To the pot, add the pasta sauce and mix well.  Stir in 1/3 cup of the mozzarella and 1/4 cup of the Parmesan.  Mix well.  Sprinkle with the oregano and basil.  Mix well and pour mixture into 9x13 baking pan. Top with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan.
Broil in preheated oven for about 5 minutes or until cheese is nicely melted and golden brown.  Enjoy!
