Ingredients
- 1 lb cavatappi pasta
- 3-4 tbsp butter
- 1/4 cup flour
- 2.5 cup milk
- 1.5 lb cheddar cheese grated or cubed
- 2.5 cup marinara sauce
- 2 tbsp tomato paste
- panko enough to cover the top of the mac and cheese
Instructions
- In a large pot, boil some salted water and cook your pasta in it. Note: be sure to keep an eye on your paste and pull it out of the water 1 minute before the al dente time on the bag.
- While your pasta is cooking, heat your oven up to 350F.
- Next, in a large pot, melt your butter and slowly whisk in your flour. Once combined, slowly whisk in milk until smooth. Bring your pot to a boil as you’re whisking to thicken.
- Lower the heat and add in your cheese, a handful at a time, whisk until smooth.
- Once smooth, add in your marinara sauce (I use my homemade one) and tomato paste before tossing in your pasta. Mix to coat the paste.
- Next, scoop your pasta into an oven-safe dish and top with some panko and bake up to 20 minutes. To get your panko super golden and crispy, you can give it a spritz of cooking spray and then broil it for up to 2 minutes.
