- Turn heat to low and add the remaining combined cheese mix to the roux/sauce mixture. Whisk until melted and smooth.
- Add pasta to the cheese sauce and stir to combine, adding salt and pepper, to taste.
- Pour this mixture into a lightly greased 9x13 dish and sprinkle with the reserved 1 cup of combined cheese. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
