Pasta and Potatoes

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Potatoes

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and pierce the russet potatoes with a fork. Bake the potatoes directly on the oven rack for about 45-60 minutes, or until tender. Remove from oven, let cool slightly, then scoop out the insides into a bowl.

  2. 2

    Cook the Pasta

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Cheese Sauce

  1. 3

    Make the Roux

    In the same pot used for the pasta, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, whisk in the flour and cook for about 1 minute until bubbly.

  2. 4

    Add Milk

    Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Continue to cook for about 5 minutes until the sauce thickens.

  3. 5

    Add Cheeses and Seasoning

    Reduce heat to low and add the shredded cheddar cheese and softened cream cheese. Stir until melted and smooth. Add the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper, stirring to combine.

Combine and Serve

  1. 6

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the cooked macaroni and potato flesh to the cheese sauce. Stir well to combine all ingredients evenly.

  2. 7

    Serve and Top

    Dish out the Loaded Baked Potato Mac into bowls. Top with crumbled bacon, sliced green onions, and a dollop of sour cream. Enjoy!
