Ingredients
- Diced a small red onion to add a burst of color and flavor. Embrace the versatility of a 16-ounce package of petite pasta shells. Season with a pinch of garlic salt and a touch of butter for richness. Sweeten the dish with a quarter cup of brown sugar. Indulge in the creamy goodness of three cans of condensed Cheddar cheese soup. Sprinkle 2/3 cup of shredded Havarti cheese for a melty finish. Enhance with a quarter cup of grated Parmesan cheese. Top it all off with 1 1/3 cups of shredded Cheddar cheese for that ultimate cheesy satisfaction.
Step 1
Preheat your oven to a cozy 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) to set the stage for this mouthwatering dish. Let's kick things off by gently simmering diced onions in a pot of lightly salted water until they reach a delightful tenderness. In a separate pot, cook the pasta until it's perfectly al dente, usually around 8 to 10 minutes, then give it a good drain.
Step 2
Now, it's time to assemble the magic in a casserole dish. Combine the cooked onions with the pasta, and season this flavorful mix with a dash of salt, pepper, and garlic salt. Next, melt some butter and brown sugar into the pasta medley until everything blends beautifully. The star of the show, Cheddar cheese soup, joins the party along with creamy Havarti cheese, tangy Parmesan cheese, and a generous 1/3 cup of Cheddar cheese. Mix this cheesy goodness thoroughly before sprinkling the remaining Cheddar cheese on top to create a golden crust.
Step 3
Pop your creation into the preheated oven and let it bake for approximately 45 minutes until it's bubbling with perfection. To elevate the dish further, switch the oven to the 'Broil' setting and let the top crisp up into a glorious golden brown hue, which usually takes around 4 minutes. Enjoy your culinary masterpiece straight from the oven!
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Embrace the magic of mason jars - layer your mac and cheese ingredients in individual jars for a fun and portable twist on classic storage.
- 2. Don't overlook the power of freezer bags - portion out your mac and cheese into single servings, seal them in freezer bags, and you'll have a quick and delicious meal on hand whenever cravings strike.
