Italian Macaroni and Cheese image

Another super-easy one that kids LOVE! They think it's cool to eat red and white mac and cheese. If you don't want to eat a raw egg simply add a little more milk.

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 lb pasta in a fun shape like medium pasta shell, spirals, wheels, etc. Something the cheese will cling to
1 pint ricotta cheese
1 egg
1/4 cup milk
salt and pepper
1/2 cup spaghetti sauce

Steps:

  • Cook pasta in salted water.
  • In a bowl big enough to hold everything, mix cheese with egg, salt, pepper, and enough milk to make it gloppy. Add well-drained cooked pasta and mix gently with a lifting motion to avoid mushiness.
  • Serve with sauce poured over and a sprinkling of freshly grated parmesan, asiago, or pecorino cheese if desired. It doesn't get much easier than this!
