Pasta and Sauce

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the farfalle pasta and cook until al dente according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Cheese Sauce

    In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for about 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until lightly golden.

  3. 3

    Add Milk & Cream

    Gradually whisk in the milk and heavy cream. Continue to whisk until the mixture is smooth and begins to thicken, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 4

    Incorporate Cheeses

    Lower the heat and add the cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheeses. Stir until melted and smooth. Season with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to taste.

  5. 5

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

    Add the cooked farfalle pasta to the cheese sauce, stirring to coat evenly.

  6. 6

    Prepare Toasted Breadcrumbs

    In a small skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the breadcrumbs and toast until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Spoon the mac and cheese onto plates, sprinkle with toasted breadcrumbs, and serve immediately.
