My mom and sister discovered this recipe on the back of a box of Creamette mostaccioli noodles. It’s a little time consuming to prep, but turns out really tasty!
Three Cheese Mostaccioli
What you need:
1 pound mostaccioli noodles
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup flour
4 1/2 cups milk
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup shredded swiss or mozzarella cheese
How to make it:
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain.
Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, melt butter. Stir in flour, basil, garlic salt, and pepper. Slowly pour in milk, stirring constantly to avoid getting lumps. Continue to stir and cook until mixture thickens. Remove from heat. Stir in 1 cup shredded cheddar and the Parmesan cheese. Mix in with cooked noodles.
Grease a 9 x 13 pan. Spread half of the pasta in the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle with the swiss or mozzarella cheese. Add remaining pasta noodles.
Cover with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until bubbling. Remove foil and immediately sprinkle with remaining shredded cheddar cheese. Let stand for 10 minutes to cool, and serve.
