Spread half remaining sauce and half cheese mixture over pasta. Top with remaining meatballs and drop dollops of ricotta over meatballs. Spread remaining pasta over ricotta and top with remaining sauce and remaining cheese mixture. Bake ziti in middle of oven 30 to 35 minutes, or until golden, and let stand 10 minutes before serving.
