Halloween Shells and Cheese
Ingredients
- 1 box pasta shells
- 1/2 stick butter
- 2 tbsp arrowroot flour/ all purpose flour
- 1 cup milk I used oat milk in the recipe. Any type of milk can be used
- 1 package shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 6 oz mascarpone cheese
- 14 cup gruyere cheese
- salt/pepper for taste
Instructions
- Cook your pasta. Follow the directions on the box.
- Place a medium sauce pot over medium heat. Add butter and melt. Once fully melted add arrowroot flour stirring with a wooden spoon to combine. Once a paste (roux) has ben achieved slowly add your milk, stirring as you go to prevent lumps. You can use a whisk during this process to ensure the mixture is smooth.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat and allow the sauce to thicken a bit, but not too much. Next, add your cheeses. Continue stirring to combine all of the ingredients. Check the consistency. If the sauce becomes too thick you can add a touch more milk. Be sure to not to add too much so the sauce doesn’t become watery.
- Once desired consistency has been achieved add salt/pepper for taste.
- When pasta is done cooking pour pasta into a colander and drain the water. Place cooked pasta into the cheese sauce. Mix well to make sure all of the sauce is covering your pasta.
- Plate and serve hot!
