CREAMY CAVATAPPI & CHEESE
Dive fork-first into oodles of noodles baked to bubbly perfection and coated with a to-die-for sharp cheddar cheese sauce in this cavatappi, a grown-up version of mac and cheese. Hot sauce lends mild heat that's delectable with the smoky topping. -Barbara Colucci, Rockledge, Florida

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 500˚ F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook 2 minutes less than the label directs for al dente. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain.
- Meanwhile, cook the sausage in 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking up the meat, until browned, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove to a plate using a slotted spoon.
- Heat 1 more tablespoon olive oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and herbes de Provence and cook 30 seconds. Stir in the tomatoes, sausage and 1/4 cup of the reserved cooking water; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. If the sauce is too thick, add a bit more cooking water. Stir the pasta into the sauce.
- Whisk the ricotta, 1/4 cup cheese blend, the lemon zest, 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper and 3 tablespoons cooking water in a bowl. Layer half of the pasta and ricotta mixture in an 8-inch square baking dish, then top with the remaining pasta, ricotta mixture and cheese blend. Bake until bubbly, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Toss the lettuce with the lemon juice and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Serve with the pasta.

- Creamy Cavatappi Pasta. This creamy cavatappi pasta recipe has a secret: it’s impossibly creamy but doesn’t have a single drop of cream! Instead of heavy cream, you’ll make a wonderful cauliflower sauce infused with six gloves of garlic.
- Cavatappi Pasta With Basil Marinara. Why use bland red sauce from a jar when you can make your own in minutes? Homemade red sauce is a real game-changer on pasta night.
- Pesto Cavatappi (Noodles & Company Copycat) Noodles & Company is a popular fast-food Italian restaurant known for its pesto cavatappi. It’s their most popular dish on the menu, and for a very good reason.
- Cheesy Bacon Cavatappi Pasta. What I love most about this cheesy bacon cavatappi pasta casserole is that it’s easy and always a crowd-pleaser. For a double punch of bacon flavor, it combines cream of bacon soup with milk, Parmesan, and mozzarella cheese.
- 3-Cheese Cavatappi. Nothing goes better with pasta (especially cavatappi pasta) than cheese. So, the next time you’re craving mac and cheese, give elbow macaroni the night off and swap it out for cavatappi.
