Time 25m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (16 ounce) package elbow macaroni
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup shredded provolone cheese
½ cup ricotta cheese
½ cup sour cream
½ cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
½ teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
½ teaspoon garlic salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add macaroni, and cook until tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain.
  • In a large bowl, toss together the mozzarella cheese, Swiss cheese, Parmesan cheese and Provolone cheese. Remove about 1/2 cup for topping and set aside. In a separate bowl, stir together the ricotta cheese, sour cream and heavy cream. Season with parsley, Italian seasoning and garlic salt.
  • Pour the ricotta cheese mixture and drained macaroni into the bowl with the cheeses and toss lightly. Do not mix too thoroughly, it's better left messy. Pour into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the reserved cheese over the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, about 10 minutes, then turn the oven to broil. Broil for about 5 minutes to brown the top.

WISCONSIN BREAKFAST CHEESE PIE

In 1980 while living in Western NY I took 5 teenagers to Green Lake, WI for Camp. We had this Cheese Pie in the dining hall twice while we were there. When I returned a couple of years later with a group on a mission trip I scoured local shops for a cookbook with the recipe. It has become a favorite of our brunch dishes.

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 15

FILLING
2 lb ricotta cheese
2 large eggs
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp lemon juice, fresh
1/2 tsp lemon zest
BATTER
1 c all purpose flour
1/2 c sugar
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1 c butter, unsalted, melted
2 large egg
1/4 c milk
1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. In a large mixing bowl, combine all the filling ingredients and blend well. Set aside.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 300-degrees. In a large bowl combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt; mix well. Add the melted butter, eggs, milk and vanilla and mix lightly but thoroughly by hand.
  • 3. Spoon half of the batter into 2 greased 9-inch pie pans. Top with filling, spreading out with a spoon, but don't mix in.
  • 4. Drop remaining batter on top of the filling by small spoonfuls, spreading out gently to cover filling as thoroughly as possible. (It will all come together during baking.)
  • 5. Bake for 1 1/2 hours. Cut into wedges and serve with fresh fruit sauce and bacon.
  • 6. I have served this with stewed rhubarb, applesauce and a strawberry/raspberry sauce. It depends on the season and what I have on hand.
